Rodrigo Sorogoyen’s latest pic, The Beasts (As bestas), dominated the main prizes, taking home nine gongs, including best film and director at the 37th edition of Spain’s Goya awards Saturday evening.

The pic debuted at Cannes last year and led the Goya award nominations with 17 nods. The film’s story follows a middle-aged French couple who move to a small village, seeking closeness with nature. However, their presence inflames two locals to the point of outright hostility and shocking violence.

The Beasts also picked up wins for best screenplay, leading actor, and supporting actor.

Movistar+’s Modelo77 from Alberto Rodriguez, which trailed The Beasts with 15 nods, picked up five wins, all of them in technical categories (make-up and hairstyling, special effects, art direction, costume design, and production direction). Carla Simón’s Golden Bear winner Alcarràs had 11 nominations but left empty-handed.

In other major wins, Alauda Ruiz de Azúa’s debut pic Lullaby (Cinco lobitos) nabbed three wins, including best new director, leading actress (Laia Costa), and supporting actress (Susi Sánchez). Santiago Miter’s Oscar-nominated thriller Argentina: 1985 won the award for best Ibero-American film.

Juliette Binoche was the recipient of this year’s International Goya. The prize is handed out by the Spanish Film Academy every year to honor personalities who “contribute to cinema as an art that unites cultures and viewers from all over the world.”

Accepting the award, Binoche said: “Thank you for this wonderful Goya, which is not for me it is for the fire that inhabits me but does not belong to me.”

Before leaving the stage, Binoche paid tribute to the Spanish filmmaker Carlos Saura who died Friday aged 91, at his home in Madrid. There were tributes to Saura throughout the show. Discussing the filmmaker’s passing, Fernando Méndez-Leite, President of the Spanish Academy, said: “His passing has deeply moved the entire film profession because he was one of the brightest assets in Spanish culture.”
