2020 Independent Spirit Award Winners

In case you missed the Independent Spirit Awards tonight, below you’ll find a recap of all the award winners. While Uncut Gems may have won the most with three, it was Lulu Wang‘s The Farewell that won the top prize of Best Feature. Zhao Shuzhen also won Best Supporting Actress for The Farewell. This is especially great, considering the film was snubbed by the Academy, and was undoubtedly one of the best features this year.

Take a look below for the full list of winners.
