Poland's Ida without Golden Globe

Russian film Leviathan won the Golden Globe Award for the Best Foreign Language Film during the 72nd Golden Globes ceremony on Sunday, beating out Ida, a Polish drama directed by Paweł Pawlikowski. “Leviathan is a very good film. Gett is better, Force Majeure is also better and Ida really really is better. Ida is, like, a borderline masterpiece. This is a weird win,” Jordan Hoffman, an American film critic was quoted as saying by The Guardian. Set in the 1960s, Ida tells a story of a novice nun, who along with her aunt, a former prosecutor associated with the Stalinist regime, sets out for a journey to find the resting place of her parents killed during World War II. The movie won numerous prestigious Polish and European awards and is Poland's entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 87th Academy Awards.
