Congratulations to NFTS graduate Ula Pontikos who has won the Sundance Film Festival prize for Best Cinematography for the film Lilting and fellow graduate Stuart Earl who composed the score.
Starring actor Ben Wishaw (Skyfall, Cloud Atlas, The Hollow Crown) and Pei Pei Cheng, Lilting is a touching and intimate film about the world of a Chinese mother mourning the untimely death of her son. Through a translator, the piece together memories of a man they both loved.
The Hollywood Reporter says: “Ula Pontikos' cinematography shows an eye for serene compositions, using the vintage wallpaper of the old folks' home or the wintry landscape that surrounds it to add visual texture.”
