Los Javis’ queer historical drama “La Bola Negra” wins the audience award at the 2026 BFI London Film Festival after its Cannes premiere.
AI MODIFIEDTVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents La Bola Negra Wins: The Festival Audience Has Decided.
The audience award goes to “La Bola Negra” – and thus to a film that convinced audiences at the London Film Festival not only through its scale, but also through its queer story. The Spanish directing duo Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, known together as Los Javis, had previously presented the film in Cannes.
The London festival had already ended a month earlier. The festival audience award was announced on the afternoon of the publication date, according to Deadline.
Who Is Behind “La Bola Negra”
The queer historical drama was created by directors and writers Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, with actors Penélope Cruz, Glenn Close and Miguel Bernardeau involved, according to Variety.
Deadline also names Guitarricadelafuente, Carlos González, Milo Quifes and Lola Dueñas in the cast. The award therefore recognizes not just an individual star, but a film with a notable cast that began its international journey with its Cannes premiere and continued with the audience award at the London Film Festival.
Another Award Alongside the London Success
The success follows a series of appearances at international festivals. The Hollywood Reporter describes “La Bola Negra” as a sweeping queer epic that continues to win hearts worldwide.
The London award is clearly distinct from the “Audience Award” for the best British discovery: that went to Grace Harper Brighouse’s documentary “Dependence”, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Both awards belong to the London festival but relate to different award categories.
What the Award Means for the Film
The audience award reflects the direct reaction of festival audiences. It shows that the queer historical drama was able to impress particularly large numbers of attendees at the BFI London Film Festival 2026 – now in London as well, following its Cannes premiere.
Status: The time of the announcement was not specified. Further information will follow.
