"The Lost Daughter" and "Zola" Lead Spirit Awards Winners — See the Full List

The 2022 Film Independent Spirit Awards winners are finally here! The show, which usually takes place during the same weekend as the Oscars, returned to the Santa Monica Pier after resorting to a virtual ceremony last year. On Dec. 14, 2021, this year's Spirit Awards nominees were announced via a livestream broadcast with Regina Hall, Naomi Watts, and Beanie Feldstein.

Kristen Stewart, who recently scored her first Oscar nomination for her haunting portrayal of Princess Diana in "Spencer," served as the honorary chair while making her Spirit Awards debut. Wearing a sequined Chanel jumpsuit, Stewart presented the award for best male lead, which went to Simon Rex for his role in "Red Rocket." Meanwhile, Taylour Paige won best female lead for "Zola." It was a big night for films "The Lost Daughter" and "Zola," which scored two and three wins, respectively. This year's presenters included Sydney Sweeney, Lily James, Regina Hall, Andrew Garfield, and Rosario Dawson.
