Bafta introduces new prize for best children’s and family film


Organisers also announced changes for other awards including a points system for outstanding British film

The victors in this category for the past three years – The Zone of Interest, The Banshees of Inisherin and Belfast – have all been set and filmed outside Britain, but made by primarily British production companies. Last year, Bafta raised eyebrows when it excluded from contention Killers of the Flower Moon star Lily Gladstone – who had just won a Golden Globe – and Andrew Scott of All of Us Strangers. Other tweaks have been made to the definition of a documentary, and to the shortlisting process for animation films and those not in the English language, as well as the amount of credits that can be allowed as named nominees in the screenplay categories.
