\"Hell<\/a>
Hell and Back Again<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Talent Management<\/a> is happy that British film-makers are gaining some well-deserved recognition following news that two Channel 4-funded documentaries have been nominated for the 84th Annual Academy Awards.<\/p>\n

Announced early last week, Danfung Dennis\u2019 British production \u2018Hell and Back Again\u2019 was nominated for Best Documentary – Feature, while Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy and Daniel Junge\u2019s \u2018Saving Face\u2019 was nominated for Best Documentary \u2013 Short Subject.<\/p>\n

Up against fellow nominees \u2018If a Tree Falls: A Story of the Earth Liberation Front\u2019, \u2018Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory\u2019, \u2018Pina\u2019 and \u2018Undefeated\u2019, Hell and Back Again cuts back and forth between the Marines battling the Taliban in Southern Afghanistan and a Sergeant who returns from the Afghanistan conflict with post-traumatic stress disorder.<\/p>\n

Saving Face, however, which is up against \u2018The Barber of Birmingham: Foot Soldier of the Civil Rights Movement\u2019,\u2018God Is the Bigger Elvis\u2019,\u2018Incident in New Baghdad\u2019 and \u2018The Tsunami and the Cherry Blossom\u2019\u00a0, follows a British-Pakistani plastic surgeon who helps women who have been injured in acid attacks.<\/p>\n

Both documentaries were commissioned by Anna Miralis as part of the acclaimed feature-length documentary strand True Stories, who said: “We are thrilled that British documentary film-making talent, which is world-class, is continuing to gain such recognition. Channel 4 is delighted to continue to support and nurture documentaries.”<\/p>\n

The Academy Awards 2012 will take place on 26 February 2012 in Los Angeles and the team here at UK-based Talent Management will be rooting for the Brits!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
