The much-anticipated climax of the awards season, the 96th Academy Awards, finally arrived, and as the night unfolded, it was a showcase of fierce competition, unforgettable moments (Ryan Gosling's rendition of "I'm Ken!"), and well-deserved victories. Below, find our concise roundup, and dive into the complete list of who took home gold at the Oscars 2024.

Nolan's "Oppenheimer" shone brightest with a staggering seven awards, snagging the coveted Best Picture and Best Director awards but also earned recognition for two stellar performances and three other achievements. As Nolan himself expressed, the journey of cinema, now over a century old, continues to evolve, with each contribution holding profound significance.

Other big winners of the night included Yorgos Lanthimos’s Poor Things, which took home four prizes including Best Actress for Emma Stone. Stone's heartfelt appreciation for every member of the cast and crew emphasised the collaborative essence of filmmaking.

As the curtains closed on the Oscars 2024, Sohonet is thrilled to have supported teams that contributed to 18 out of 23 wins behind the scenes. Congratulations to all involved; these films are a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the boundless creativity that propels it forward.
