Payal Kapadia's All We Imagine As Light draws blank in Golden Globes 2025
Beverly Hills/IBNS: Payal Kapadia's All We Imagine As Light, which had won big at Cannes 2024, has lost in all two categories in which it was selected at the 82nd Golden Globes Awards on Sunday.
The film was nominated in two categories- best motion picture non-english language and best direction motion picture- at the awards which were held at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, the United States.
All We Imagine As Light has lost to Emilia Perez from France in the best motion picture non-english language category.
Brady Corbet for The Brutalist has won the award in the best direction motion picture category where Kapadia was nominated.
All We Imagine As Light had scripted history by becoming the first Indian film to be nominated in this category.
It is a story about two nurses from the south Indian state of Kerala working at a hospital and living together at a congested apartment in Mumbai.
The story tracks the two nurses- Prabha and Anu- who suffer in their individual relationships.
While Prabha's husband lives in Germany and barely keeps in touch, Anu is in a relationship with a Muslim man from Kerala knowing the relationship won't be approved by her family.
Prabha is played by Kani Kasruti while Anu is essayed by Divya Prabha.
Scripting history, All We Imagine As Light won the Grand Prix, the second highest award at the Cannes Film Festival this year.
It was also the first Indian film in 30 years to compete for the top prize Palme d'Or at the 77th edition of Cannes Film Festival, where Kapadia's work received an eight-minute standing ovation after the screening.
