The Lost Daughter and Passing Lead 2021 Gotham Awards Nominations

Awards season is now officially underway with the announcement of the nominations for the 2021 Gotham Independent Film Awards. Leading the way this year are Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Lost Daughter and Rebecca Hall’s Passing, which both scored five nominations including Best Feature, Breakthrough Director, and Best Screenplay.

This year, the Gotham Awards has adopted gender-neutral categories in the acting field with up to ten nominees each for Outstanding Lead Performance, Outstanding Supporting Performance, and Outstanding Performance in a New Series. For the first time, international documentaries were eligible for the Best Documentary category. Four of the five nominees are from countries outside the United States.

In previously announced tribute awards, Jane Campion will receive the Director’s Tribute, the cast of The Harder They Fall will receive the Ensemble Tribute, Oscar hopeful Kristen Stewart will receive the Performer Tribute, and Magnolia Pictures chief Eamonn Bowles will receive the Industry Tribute.
