In addition to the recent Critics Choice Awards nod for "Best Documentary Feature,” the movie has been honored for three more nominations. The British Academy Film Awards have nominated it in the "Best Documentary Category,” while The Director’s Guild Of America has cited Scorsese for "Outstanding Directorial Achievement.” The film’s editor, David Tedeschi, has also been nominated by the American Cinema Editors in the "Best Edited Documentary” category.

"Our nominees represent the best in documentary filmmaking,” said Directors Guild of America President Taylor Hackford. "The documentaries made by this year’s nominees take audiences on a journey, whether casting light on injustice or exploring the human condition in all of its nuance, cruelty, creativity and triumph.”
