Mike Leigh’s film “Tender Loving Care” is the top winner at the San Sebastián Film Festival, taking the Golden Shell for Best Film. Multiple outlets report it also wins Best Screenplay, with Kate O’Flynn recognized for a leading performance through the festival’s Silver Shell category.
The festival jury is led by U.S. filmmaker Ira Sachs, according to the reports. “Tender Loving Care” is described as potentially Leigh’s last feature film, adding emphasis to the significance of the win in festival coverage. Alongside the major jury awards, other winners are noted by outlets as audience honors: “La Bola Negra” and “NAZA” receive audience awards on the final night. Across the sources, the focus remains on Leigh’s film leading the awards tally, while audience awards highlight the festival’s broader range of standout titles.
