This year’s ceremony featured a truly unprecedented milestone: Autumn Durald Arkapaw won the Oscar for Best Cinematography for Sinners, becoming the first woman in the Academy’s history to win in this category. During her emotional acceptance speech, she addressed her peers:

I am so grateful to be here! I want all the women in this room to stand up, because I wouldn’t be here without you.

The award for Best International Feature Film was bestowed upon Sentimental Value.

Meanwhile, Best Documentary Feature went to Mr. Nobody vs. Putin, a film documenting the imposition of state propaganda on children in Russian schools.

In another historic first, the Best Live Action Short Film category resulted in a tie between two works: Singers and Two People Exchange Saliva. Both films received an equal number of votes from Academy members, leading the board to honor both nominees with the award.
