Yes, the penguins won best documentary.

It sounds like it was probably a good documentary. My sister made the mistake of thinking it was a movie and that kids would like it! Her kids wound up shocked and crying. Not a good film for young kids.

I bought the movie and have watched it a while back. It is harsh, but there are some tender scenes. I would have liked a directors commentary, but maybe they will do one in a future release.

One of the amazing feats is how their instincts lead them all to the same location after a 70 mile walk inland {to avoid the ice melting as the temperature warms later} to pair up and raise their young in brutal conditions.
