Nordic Council Film Prize

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Nordic Council Film Prize is an annual film prize administered by the Nordic Council. The Nordisk Film & TV Fond is the funding body that administers the prize.

History

[edit]

The first award was handed out in 2002 to celebrate the Nordic Council's 50th anniversary.[1] Since 2005 the prize has been annual. In 2023, Greenland submitted a film for the first time with The Edge Of The Shadow, directed by Malik Kleist.[2]

Description

[edit]

The Nordisk Film & TV Fond is secretariat to the Nordic Council. It is funded by 22 partners: the Nordic Council of Ministers; five national film institutes; and 16 public and private media companies. It also funds the Nordisk Film & TV Fond Prize at the annual Gothenburg Film Festival.[3]

One winner is chosen from submissions from the five Nordic countries.

In 2008, the prize money of the Nordic Council Film Prize was 47,000. According to the Nordic Council, the prize is given for "the creation of an artistically original film that is rooted in Nordic cultural circles".[4][needs update]
