, which will be hosted in his home country South Korea for the first time since the prize ceremony’s inception in 2007. The acclaimed drama picked up 10 nominations, including best film, best director and best screenplay.
The awards were switched from their previous March slot to one in October in order to coincide with the Busan festival. That looked like a fortuitous decision, but the coronavirus has caused long-lasting problems for travel around the Asia region, and the AFAs will be held virtually. Joining the race for best film are: “Listen to the Universe,” a screen adaptation of a Japanese novel that tells a youth story, which is competing in the best film and best sound categories; Iranian drama “There is No Evil,” which won the Golden Bear at the Berlinale earlier this year, as well as Indian social drama “Thappad.”
