Shaunak Sen’s ‘All That Breathes’ has won the Best Documentary Award at the 37th ASC Awards. The documentary, which has been nominated for the upcoming Oscars in the Best Documentary Feature category, has bagged several international awards including the Golden Eye of Cannes and the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance.

Director SS Rajamouli and music composer MM Keeravani, who are in the US to promote their film ‘RRR’, presented the award to ‘All That Breathes’ cinematographers Ben Bernhard and Riju Das.

While announcing the nominees, Keervani said, ‘Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Cinematography can make or break a documentary. Unlike a feature film, where you can control the lighting, sound, and subjects, a documentary cinematographer is afforded none of these advantages.’

Rajamouli said, ‘Capturing the memorable dance sequences in RRR required a lot of talent and time. Shooting a documentary requires all that and an innate gift to anticipate to capture the perfect shot to elevate the storytelling to an art form.’

‘All That Breathes’ narrates the story of two brothers Saud and Nadeem, who fight to save the lives of black kites, which are in danger due to the increasing pollution in India’s capital New Delhi. Shaunak Sen has produced the documentary along with Aman Mann and Teddy Leifer.
