Dissident Iranian director Jafar Panahi won three awards Monday at the 35th annual Gotham Awards in a starry kickoff to the film industry’s awards season. He bagged all three awards for his revenge drama 'It Was Just an Accident': best director, best original screenplay and best international film. Earlier Monday, Panahi’s attorney, Mostafa Nili, said the director had been sentenced to one year in prison and a two-year travel ban. Panahi was jailed for months shortly before making 'It Was Just an Accident' and only released after going on a hunger strike. In 2010, he was barred from filmmaking or traveling out of Iran. Yet he continued to make films without the government’s permission. Since 2023, and until Monday’s ruling, Panahi had been permitted to leave Iran. In May, his film won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
