The BAFTA EE Rising Star nominations were announced today, and we’re thrilled to see IN CAMERA star Nabhaan Rizwan among this year’s incredible contenders. He joins fellow nominees Marisa Abela, Jharrel Jerome, David Jonsson, and Mikey Madison.
This award embodies the shared ambition of EE and BAFTA to champion the rising stars of the film world and to inspire the next generation to pursue their passions and explore their creative curiosities.
We’re especially proud to see Nabhaan Rizwan recognised for his standout role in IN CAMERA. Written and directed by Naqqash Khalid, the film defies conventional filmmaking norms, crafting a thought-provoking dialogue between the observer and the observed. IN CAMERA offers a satirical commentary on contemporary race politics, showcasing both Rizwan’s remarkable talent and Khalid’s bold vision as a storyteller.
Voting is now open to the public and closes on Friday 14 February.
We’re proud to represent IN CAMERA for international sales.
