The inaugural Österreichischen Filmpreis (Austrian Film Award) - nominations
On Friday, December 17 the Akademie des Östereichischen Films (Academy of Austrian Film) announced the nominees for the first ever edition of the Österreichischen Filmpreis (Austrian Film Award). Der Räuber (The Robber) directed by Benjamin Heisenberg dominated with seven nominations for Best Feature Film, Director, Actor, Screenplay, Camera, Editing and Sound. The movie is based on the true story of an Austrian champion marathoner who led a secret double life holding up banks in the 1980s.
Two films received four nominations each. They were Jessica Hausner's multi-award winning film Lourdes and Oskar Roehler's Austria-German film Jud Süss – Film ohne Gewissen (Jew Suss: Rise and Fall). But Jud Süss – Film ohne Gewissen did not receive a Best Feature Film nomination which instead went to Andreas Prochaska's Die unabsichtliche Entführung der Frau Elfriede Ott (The accidental kidnapping of the Woman Elfriede Ott).
The Österreichischen Filmpreis was founded in March 2009 by the Akademie des Östereichischen Films (Academy of Austrian Film). They are likely intended to be a more serious alternative to the Romy Awards. 41 feature films released in Austrian cinemas between October 1, 2009 and November 30, 2010 were eligible for nominations. For a film to be nominated, it had to satisfy at least two of the three criteria: 1) the original version of the film is German; 2) the director is from Austria, or lives in Austria; or 3) the producer is an Austrian or resides in Austria. Three nominees were determined in each of the 13 categories.
The Academy consists of over 140 film professionals. It is current President is director/producer Barbara Albert and the Chairman is actor/director Karl Markovic.
The ceremony for the 1st Österreichischen Filmpreis will be on January 29th 2011 in Vienna, Austria.
