Directed by Oliver Laxe, Sirat secured several technical awards, including sound, editing, cinematography, and original music. The film's success in Barcelona serves as a prelude to the Oscars, where it is nominated for Best International Feature Film.
“"I want to dedicate this award to all the women who came before me, opening doors, those who have not been recognized, those who support the art teams, and all those to come."
While Los domingos by Alauda Ruiz de Azúa took the top honors for Best Film and Director, Sirat was recognized for its visual and atmospheric depth. The movie follows a father and son's journey through Morocco, featuring a cast of mostly non-professional actors alongside Sergi López.
