The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg has submitted films for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film since 1997. The Foreign Language Film award is handed out annually by the United States Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to a feature-length motion picture produced outside the United States that contains primarily non-English dialogue. As of 2015, twelve Luxembourgian films have been submitted for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Ten of these films have been accepted for Oscar consideration, but none have yet been nominated for an Academy Award. ==Submissions== The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has invited the film industries of various countries to submit their best film for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film since 1956. The Foreign Language Film Award Committee oversees the process and reviews all the submitted films. Following this, they vote via secret ballot to determine the five nominees for the award.〔 Below is a list of the films that have been submitted by Luxembourg for review by the Academy for the award by year and the respective Academy Awards ceremony. Because of Luxembourg's small size, many of the submitted films were co-productions with neighboring countries. AMPAS disqualified ''Your Name is Justine'' in 2006, arguing that Luxembourg did not have sufficient artistic control over the muilti-national film, which was directed by a Poland-based Venezuelan director, set in Germany and Poland, funded primarily by Luxembourg, and shot mostly in Polish and English. The film was originally considered to represent Poland, but it did not make Poland's four-film shortlist 〔http://wiadomosci.gazeta.pl/wiadomosci/1,55670,3642251.html〕 and it was subsequently selected to represent Luxembourg. Luxembourg's first submission, ''Elles'' also straddled the nationality guidelines. Directed by a Portuguese and set in Lisbon, the film was primarily in French, and featured a diverse lead cast from France, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, and the USA, but not Luxembourg. ''Dead Man's Hand'' was a minority Luxembourg production, which actually represented Belgium at several film festivals.〔http://www.sfs.org.sg/event.php?id=79〕 All other films were directed by native-born Luxembourgian directors. Of Luxembourg's nine accepted submissions, two were light comedies (1998 and 2002), two were contemporary dramas (1997 and 2003) one was an animated film (2005), one was a thriller (2008,) one was a crime drama (2013,) and two were period dramas set in the 1940s (2009) and 1960s (2007). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of Luxembourgish submissions for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
