Barack Obama shares his favorite films of 2024: Indian movie 'All We Imagine as Light' tops the list

The acclaimed Indian film continues to win hearts globally

Former U.S. President Barack Obama has unveiled his much-anticipated list of favorite films for 2024, and leading the pack is Payal Kapadia’s critically acclaimed Malayalam-language drama All We Imagine as Light. The film, which has already garnered international recognition, has once again proven its global appeal.

A historic year for Payal Kapadia’s masterpiece

Kapadia’s All We Imagine as Light has had a remarkable journey this year. It made history by becoming the first Indian film to win the prestigious Grand Prix at Cannes 2024. The movie’s accolades didn’t stop there—it has received nominations for major awards, including the Critics’ Choice Awards and the upcoming Golden Globes 2025, where it has been nominated for Best Non-English Language Motion Picture and Best Director (Motion Picture).

The film has also won the Jury Grand Prize at the Asia Pacific Screen Awards, Best International Feature at the Gotham Awards, and the Best International Film Award at the New York Film Critics Circle.

Obama’s annual tradition

Obama’s annual tradition of sharing his favorite movies, books, and songs has become a cultural event, offering his followers an insight into his diverse tastes. This year, his list of favorite films features a mix of acclaimed works alongside Kapadia’s film, including Conclave, The Piano Lesson, The Promised Land, The Seed of the Sacred Fig, Dune: Part Two, Anora, Didi, Sugarcane, and A Complete Unknown.

Storyline and cast of Payal Kapadia’s ‘All We Imagine as Light‘

The film explores the lives of three women living together in Mumbai as they navigate their struggles, desires, and challenges. Starring Kani Kusruti, Divya Prabha, and Chhaya Kadam, the movie follows: Prabha (Kani Kusruti), a nurse who receives an unexpected gift from her estranged husband. Anu (Divya Prabha), who struggles to find privacy in the bustling city for her relationship. Parvati (Chhaya Kadam), a widow fighting against a developer determined to demolish her home in a Mumbai chawl. Kapadia’s sensitive storytelling and the layered portrayal of urban women’s lives have resonated with audiences worldwide.

With its global accolades and now a spot on Obama’s list, All We Imagine as Light marks a significant milestone for Indian cinema on the international stage. As the film continues its award-season run, it remains a shining example of the depth and diversity of stories emerging from India.
