Best Motion Picture - Non-English Language Anatomy of a Fall (2023)

Anatomy of a Fall has one of the best scenes in recent history that has stuck with me all year. The performances are great and the look at how the legal system operates in France will have you curious how other countries courts work in general.

Best Motion Picture - Animated The Boy and the Heron (2023)

This movie was written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki. The film is bright, adventurous and filled with symbolism. Follow Mahito as he deals with the aftermath of his mother's death and adjusts to his new family in a dreamy/dangerous world.
