'Sundays' triumphs at the main awards of a Goya ceremony that supports 'Sirât' on the way to the Oscars

'Sundays' has won several major awards at the Goya ceremony, highlighting its political and feminist themes while supporting another film on its Oscar journey.

The film 'Sundays', directed by Alauda Ruiz de Azúa, has emerged victorious at the Goya Awards, clinching five major accolades including Best Film, Best Direction, and Best Original Screenplay, signaling a significant achievement in Spanish cinema. The narrative revolves around a believer girl who concerns her atheistic aunt about the potential influence of a sect, reflecting societal issues and family dynamics in contemporary Spain. The Goya ceremony this year featured a notably political and feminist atmosphere, with 'Sundays' embodying these themes through its content and reception. The film has not only received critical recognition but has also sparked conversations beyond the cinema, entering family discussions and even making its mark at church gates, indicating its wider cultural impact. As 'Sundays' takes the spotlight, it also extends its support to the film 'Sirât', which is on its way to the Oscars. The synergy between these cinematic works emphasizes the current momentum of Spanish films in international recognition, positioning them as strong contenders in global film festivals and award ceremonies.
