Discovering the work of filmmaker Roxy Rezvany has been a recent highlight here at Dn. Last month we spoke to her about her short Photo Booth, which, through a single shot, captures an immigrant couple from 70s London as they navigate the law and each other.

The 2022 EnergaCamerimage 30th International Film Festival concluded today in Toruń, Poland, with “Tár,” the first film in 16 years from Academy Award-nominated writer-director Todd Field, taking the Golden Frog, the festival’s highest honor, with kudos going to first-time winner Florian Hoffmeister, who shot the picture.

Personal tales of hubris, ego and living large dominated the Camerimage International Film Festival, with the Florian Hoffmeister-shot drama “Tár,” directed by Todd Field, taking the top prize at the leading annual cinematography event.
