- 2018 Winner Pioneer AwardThis year's BFCC Pioneer Award is given to writer/director/producer/actor Spike Lee for his immense contributions in film and television this year with 'Blackkklansman', 'Pass Over', 'Nigerian Prince', 'Tales from the Hood 2' and the recent 'She's Gotta Have It' TV series. Lee has proved that perseverance, artistic integrity and unerring commitment to excellence and social relevance will always yield remarkable results. Since his debut film 'She's Gotta Have It' and socially relevant narrative film classics like 'Malcom X', 'Chi-Raq', '25th Hour', 'Jungle Fever', to extraordinarily powerful documentaries like '4 Little Girls' and 'When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts' Lee continues to prove that film can be a force for activism and expands the boundaries of what black filmmakers can achieve. Spike Lee embodies the very essence of the word Pioneer.
