Films from the South

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Films from the South (Norwegian: Film fra sør) is an international movie festival held annually in Oslo, Norway. Movies from Africa, Asia, and Latin-America are shown. The festival has its origin in the student film club of University of Oslo,[1] and has become one of Norway's most favourite festivals.[1] It has approximately 20,000 visitors each year.[2] The festival functions as a rendezvous to ethnic Norwegians and people with multicultural backgrounds.[2]

The main award is the Silver Mirror for best feature film. Other awards include the audience award, the FIPRESCI-award and the DOK:SØR award for best documentary.
