20th Quebec Cinema Awards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 20th Quebec Cinema Awards ceremony was held on 3 June 2018 in Montreal,[1] to recognize talent and achievement in the Cinema of Quebec. It was hosted by actresses Édith Cochrane and Guylaine Tremblay, who also jointly hosted the 2017 Prix Iris.[2] Formerly known as the Jutra Awards, the Prix Iris name was announced in October 2016.[3] A new category, Best Sound for a Documentary Film, was created for the 2018 event, and the nominees for Best Film was increased from five to seven.[4]

The first winner was announced in spring 2018, with director and screenwriter André Forcier honoured with the Iris Hommage for 50 years of contributions to the province's film industry.[1] Artisans-category awards were given on 29 May.[5] The zombie-themed Ravenous by Robin Aubert won Best Film.
