The following is a list of Amanda Award winners within the main categories awarded at the annual Norwegian International Film Festival since the award's initiation in 1985. In 1993, the so-called "Nordic Amanda" honoured cinematic achievements from all the Nordic countries. This practice was discontinued the following year, but an award for best Nordic film was awarded until the year 2000.[1]
The list of categories is incomplete.
Best Film (Norwegian)
[edit]
1985–2004 the Amanda Award for Best Norwegian Film was given to the director. In 2005 this practice was changed, and the award is now given to the film's producer.
