Pawel Pawlikowski’s Ida has been crowned the Best Film at the 57th BFI London Film Festival (Oct 7-20).
It saw off competition from the likes of Richard Ayoade’s The Double, Peter Landesman’s JFK drama Parkland and Jonathan Glazer’s Under the Skin, starring Scarlett Johansson (click here for full list).
Ida stars newcomer Agata Trzebuchowska opposite Polish star Agata Kulesza in the story of a novice nun coming face-to-face with her family’s past in 1960s Poland.
It marks the first Polish-language film for Warsaw-born British filmmaker Pawlikowski, best known for The Last Resort and BAFTA-award winning My Summer of Love.
The film previously won the Fipresci International Critics’ Award at the Toronto International Film Festival last month and the top prize at Poland’s Gdynia Film Festival.
