The American Film Institute (AFI) announced the AFI Awards 2022 honorees including 10 outstanding films and 10 outstanding TV programs deemed culturally and artistically representative of this year’s most significant achievements in the art of the moving image. Films include Everything Everywhere All At Once, She Said, Tár and Women Talking
The Banshees Of Inisherin was selected for an AFI Special Award, designated for works of excellence that fall outside of AFI Awards’ eligibility criteria.
“AFI Awards shines a light upon excellence in storytelling and the collaborators who bring these stories to the screen,” said Bob Gazzale, AFI President and CEO. “This year, more than ever, celebrating the community of artists that realize these dreams is particularly meaningful – as they have lifted our spirits through the most challenging of times and proven the power of this great art form.”
Honorees will gather on Friday, January 13, 2023, for recognition at the annual AFI Awards private luncheon at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills.
