Sweet Like Lemons has been longlisted by a jury for this year’s BAFTA awards in the British Short Animation category. The awards “recognise and celebrate the outstanding storytellers of our time, and the craft that goes into making the films, games and TV shows that enrich our culture.” Six films were selected to advance onto the longlist from which nominations will be made by a jury and go ahead to this year’s ceremony.
BAFTA Film Committee Chair, Anna Higgs, said: “The publication of the EE BAFTA Film Awards longlists is one our favourite dates in the awards season calendar […] Today we are shining a light on 69 incredible films that BAFTA voters have the difficult task of whittling down to the final nominees list. I encourage everyone to go see these films and make their own minds up. Huge congratulations to those longlisted today, it’s an extraordinary achievement and a testament to the phenomenal talent in our industry.”
