We reward talents and new voices contributing to quality and diversity in film.
Extraordinary effort
We award the three Danish honorary awards in connection with ISBJØRNEN, Nordisk Film Fondens' award show that takes place each year in November in connection with our birthday.
We give our awards to talents who have made an extraordinary effort in Danish film.
The decision of recipients of the different awards are taken in designated committees. Each award has its purpose and its committee.
