Hosted annually by the Independent Filmmaker Project (IFP), the Gotham Awards kick-off the Hollywood awards season with New York's perspective on Best of's and Talent to Watch.
Ironically (for an organization built on Indie film) held at Cipriani Wall Street, the Gothams attract a passionate crowd of producers, actors, directors, screenwriters, and film companies. Hosted by a changing guard of comedians and actors, the awards focus on rewarding new talent, from star-bound actors to household-name-next-year directors.
