Background

The awards added three new categories, namely that of Best New Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and a non-gendered acting award for the Best New Performance. The nominations were read by Maria Morera [ca] and Roger Casamajor on 14 December 2022 from Auditorium of La Pedrera.^[4] In the wake of Agustí Villaronga's death, Catalan Film Academy president Judith Colell announced changes in the gala in order to pay homage to the filmmaker, who helmed signature Catalan pictures such as Black Bread or Uncertain Glory.^[5]
