Winner to be announced on 31 October
The winner of the 2023 Nordic Council Film Prize will be announced together with the winners of the other Nordic Council prizes at an awards ceremony on 31 October in Oslo in conjunction with the annual Session of the Nordic Council.
The prize money of DKK 300,000 is shared equally between the winning screenwriter, director and producer, which underlines that film as an art form is the result of close co-operation between these three main functions.
