Burning And Zama Lead 2018 ICS Award Nominations


Daniel Gimenez Cacho in Zama

Into the latter half of awards season, once most of the critics groups have long been and gone, the International Cinephile Society announces its annual awards nominations, and it's always worth the wait. Two of 2018's very best movies, Burning and Zama, lead the field this year with nine nods apiece, also featuring among the 12 Best Picture nominees. It's a fabulous bunch all around, handsomely reflecting the best of cinema in 2018; the ICS have also nominated persons of colour in every single category, and three women among the six Best Director nominees. Brilliant choices from top to bottom. Winners will be announced on the 3rd of February. All the details you need to know below:
