The Camerimage main competition has emerged as an event to watch during awards season. In three of the past five years, the winner of Camerimage’s Golden Frog additionally earned an Oscar nomination. That included “Joker” (2019), “Nomadland” (2020) and “Tar” (2022). A year ago, Silver Frog winner “El Conde” and Bronze Winner “Poor Things” went on to earn Academy Award noms, while “The New Boy” claimed the Golden Frog at the festival.
This year’s edition of Camerimage will open with Steve McQueen’s “Blitz,” lensed by Yorick Le Saux, while Jon M. Chu’s “Wicked,” shot by cinematographer Alice Brooks, is set to close the festival.
