From Casarotto:
A MASSIVE congratulations to Sebastian Lelio, who wrote and directed A FANTASTIC WOMAN, and to his co-writer Gonzalo Maza. The film took home the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film at the 90th Academy Awards on Sunday night, marking Chile’s first ever Academy win. The film’s star, Daniela Vega, also made history by being the first transgender person to present an award at the prestigious event.
A FANTASTIC WOMAN also took home the award for Best International Film at the Spirit Awards the night before!
