The trippy sci-fi won in every category it was nominated, at a ceremony held in a giant tent at Los Angeles’ Santa Monica beach to celebrate low- and mid-budget films.

Its voters granted a whopping seven awards to the film, which was made for around US$25 million and became independent studio A24’s biggest-ever hit, with a global box office gross above US$100 million.

“This is too many. We’re so lucky!” said co-director Daniel Scheinert, collecting the night’s final prize.
