BFI Distribution is excited to announce the release of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival Grand Prix winner, All We Imagine as Light (2024), written and directed by Payal Kapadia, in UK and Irish cinemas on 29 November 2024. A BFI Blu-ray and BFI Player release will follow in early 2025.

Featuring Kani Kusruti (Prabha) Divya Prabha (Anu) and Chhaya Kadam (Parvaty) in the lead roles, All We Imagine as Light was the first Indian film to be selected in Official Competition at Cannes in three decades. Payal Kapadia also made history as the first female Indian filmmaker ever to have a film in this prestigious section of the festival. After dancing down the red carpet, the director and her cast saw the film receive an eight-minute standing ovation; worldwide critical acclaim and 5-star reviews followed.
