Christopher Hampton and Florian Zeller took home an Oscar in the category of Adapted Screenplay for their work in the Anthony Hopkins-starrer 'The Father'. In the film, protagonist Anthony (Hopkins) interacts with daughter Anne (Colman) and other characters who give him conflicting accounts of the past and present.

Like Anthony, the audience has to solve the puzzle of what's real and whose truth should be believed. The Florian Zeller directorial, which is an adaptation of his 2014 play, has collected six Oscar nominations this year.
