Aotearoa Film & TV Awards (New Zealand) - nominees
The newly named Aotearoa Film & Television Awards (AFTAs) -- formerly known as Qantas Film and Television Awards -- to honour New Zealand film and TV have announced the nominations for their 2011 edition.
Leading with 11 nominations including Best Feature and Best Director is Jason Stutter's Predicament. It was followed by Love Story with 8 nominations and My Wedding And Other Secrets with 5 nominations, also including Best Feature and Best Director for each.
Michael Bennett's debut film Matariki received 6 nominations including Outstanding Feature Film Debut.
Curiously, the submission to the Academy for Best Foreign Language Film, The Orator, is not nominated for any AFTA Awards. It is a Samoan-language film.
657 entries were submitted to the AFTA committee this year. 90 judges determined the finalists in the 61 categories.
The AFTAs will be awarded during two Awards ceremonies next month. The Craft Awards ceremony takes place Thursday, November 10 while the Gala Awards Ceremony takes place on Saturday November 12. Both events take place at the Viaduct Events Centre in Auckland.
