Chloe Zhao's acclaimed movie landed the virtual ceremony's top honour - a prize that has predicted the Oscars Best Picture award for 21 years out of the last 31 - on Wednesday.

In addition to writing, directing, and editing the film, Zhao also served as a producer alongside the movie's star Frances McDormand as well as Peter Spears, Mollye Asher, and Dan Janvey.
