The award, which comes with a £20,000 prize ($22,000), was awarded to three artists working across film and moving image practices: writer/director Ella Glendining (director and cast of Is There Anybody Out There?), writer/director/producer Savanah Leaf (writer/director of Earth Mama), and producer Nadira Murray (Winners).
