“All That Breathes” and “Fire of Love” led the 16th Annual Cinema Eye Honors awards ceremony on Thursday night, which took place at the Museum of Moving image in Astoria, N.Y. and honored excellent craftsmanship and artistry in nonfiction films.
Shaunak Sen’s “All That Breathes,” which follows two brothers who run a bird hospital dedicated to rescuing injured black kites, won the top honor for outstanding achievement in nonfiction filmmaking as well as the award for cinematography.

Founded in 2007, Cinema Eye Honors recognizes the subjects and entire creative team behind international nonfiction works, with several of its honorees going on to win Oscars for best documentary feature.
Films “Fire of Love” and “The Territory” held the most nominations with seven each. “All that Breathes” received six nominations, and “All the Beauty and the Bloodshed” and “A Night of Knowing Nothing” each received four nods. “Four Hours at the Capital,” “Moonage Daydream,” “Navalny” and “Nothing Compares” each held three nominations.
“Flee,” “Ascension,” “The Watermelon Woman,” “The Velvet Underground” and “Pretend It’s a City” received awards at last year’s ceremony, which was postponed to March due to COVID-19.
Cinema Eye Honors’ sponsors include Apple TV Plus, HBO Max, Hulu, Netflix and Amazon Studios.
