The Forqué awards are usually the first of the Spanish film season to announce their nominations. And, therefore, they also inaugurate the eternal debate each year about whether the chosen candidates are the most appropriate or not. This Thursday the finalists were announced for the gala that will be held on December 14 in Madrid. They compete for the best film award The 47th, by Marcel Barrena, The blue star, by Javier Macipe, The infiltrator, by Arantxa Echevarría, and Second prize, by Isaki Lacuesta and Pol Rodríguez. And the conversations in the sector and on social networks, in addition to the films chosen, have also focused on the most striking absence: The next room, Pedro Almodóvar’s first film in English and the first Spanish film in history to win the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, recently nominated for four European film awards, including best feature and direction, it has not achieved a single option for the Forqué .

It is not a question of language, English was not an impediment: all feature films “of Spanish nationality, with a duration greater than 60 minutes that have been released in theaters” were eligible for the award for best fiction film, to name the most desired category. commercials in Spain” throughout 2024, as read in the rules of the awards. It is, therefore, a different cinematographic criterion: the oldest film festival in the world had one; the awards given by Spanish film producers and others. They have shared their opinion, however, with the Film Academy—of which they are a part, along with other professional groups—which chose Second prize as Spanish representative for the next Oscar gala.
