In an emotional and surprising ceremony, La infiltrada and El 47 tied for Best Film, making history.
In a ceremony marked by uncertainty and emotion, the 2025 Goya Awards made history with an unprecedented tie for Best Film between La infiltrada and El 47. This result, which had only been seen once before in 1991, reflected the unpredictable nature of cinema, where fragility and risk are part of the art.
La infiltrada, directed by Arantxa Echevarría, stood out for its bold approach to the themes of terrorism and machismo, establishing itself as a gripping thriller that broke gender barriers in filmmaking. Although it only took home two statues, its narrative impact was undeniable.
On the other hand, El 47, directed by Marcel Barrena, won five Goyas, including technical and supporting acting awards. Its honest portrayal of Spain’s recent history resonated with the audience, proving that emotional connection outweighs any prediction.
Segundo Premio, by Isaki Lacuesta and Pol Rodríguez, shone with awards for Best Direction, Sound, and Editing, while Pedro Almodóvar added the award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
The intense and emotional ceremony celebrated not only talent but also the diversity and the ability of cinema to surprise and move. A rare and deserving double Goya.
