Film Awards from Countries Outside the United States

There are 25 different countries represented here, as well as two pan-continental film awards.  I tried to track down any country that had had a regular film awards process for more than the last few years. 

While doing this I found that both Wikipedia and IMDB are a mess in regards to some of their entries (especially Wikipedia).  Where possible I verified the lists presented here on the web pages of those country’s film associations, but since I don’t speak dozens of foreign languages, I was not always able to do this.  I have noted in some of the spreadsheets where lists may be off a little.  If you have a definitive source for one of these and it differs from what I have here, please let me know in the comments.

It was a lot of work doing this, but on the plus side, after transcribing and translating these lists I now have a 5-10 word vocabulary in a couple dozen languages.

Because there were so many of them I did not embed the spreadsheets directly into this page.  Instead I embedded links to the spreadsheets.  By clicking on them you will be able to see/download the ones you want.  For all of these, by placing a “1” in the “Seen?” column to indicate you have seen the film you will get a running total and percentage at the bottom of the sheet.
