A first in the film critic industry, IFCA is proud to have a Filmmaker-In-Residence position to join critics and filmmakers together and share the joy that is going to the movies.
The Filmmaker-In-Residence award is like its namesake creative in nature, and allows the filmmaker complete freedom to choose which film they want to award and why.
Director David Hackl is this years Filmmaker-In-Residence, he had this to say about the film he has chosen to award.
Thank you to the Independent Film Critics Association for giving me the honor of being 2023’s “Filmmaker in Residence” and I’m pleased to offer my choice for favorite film from 2022.
Everything, Everywhere, All at Once: by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert
I can’t begin to say how much I love this movie. I’ve been a huge fan of the Daniels since their early days of music videos and commercials. Everything, Everywhere, All At Once is a mind-blowing journey that takes the LOVE STORY and filmmaking to a whole new level. The Daniels have taken the concept of the multiverse and exploded the possibilities, pushing storytelling to new heights through their ingenious use of filmmaking techniques with unbound imagination. This is one of the most unique and profoundly enjoyable films I have ever seen.
