2024 Dorian Film Award Winners Announced

Winners for the 15th annual Dorian Film Awards, hosted by GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics, were announced. Leading the pack is Andrew Haigh’s All of Us Strangers, which won three prizes, including Film of the Year.

In a statement, GALECA President Will Hickey said the following about the film, “Twelve years ago, Andrew Haigh’s fresh and observant queer romance Weekend ruled our Dorians as well. So the fact that Strangers obviously touched many of our members’ hearts as well counts as sort of a sweet homecoming to our organization.”
