Sono state annunciate oggi le nomination della 36esima edizione dei Film Independent Spirit Awards, decise da un comitato di una cinquantina di membri e successivamente votate dagli oltre 6.000 membri dell’associazione Film Independent. I film candidabili devono essere prodotti negli Stati Uniti con un budget inferiore ai 22.5 milioni di dollari.

L’edizione di quest’anno è slittata di alcuni mesi a causa dell’emergenza Coronavirus, e di conseguenza anche le nomination, che tradizionalmente si svolgono a fine novembre. Un anno fa The Farewell e Diamanti Grezzi trionfarono come miglior film e miglior regia, quest’anno le candidature evidenziano a sorpresa Mai raramente a volte sempre, la pellicola di Eliza Hittman che ha ottenuto ben 7 nomination. Subito sotto, Minari è candidato a sei premi, mentre Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom e Nomadland a cinque.

Netflix guida la classifica del maggior numero di nomination (16), seguita da Focus Features (10) e A24 (9).
