The American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences ( Oscars ) award category for Best Foreign Language Film is intended to award feature films produced outside the US jurisdiction and with predominantly non-English or dialogue languages [1] . As a competitive “merit award”, she first appeared at the 29th Oscar award ceremony, held in 1957 [2] . Earlier, in 1948-1956, foreign-language films were awarded 8 times with the “Honorary / Special Oscar”. The award is presented to the director, and the official winner is the country whose film won.
Brazil has been participating in this Oscar category since 1960. The selection of a film for filing an application from the country is made by a special committee of the Ministry of Culture of Brazil [3] . By the end of 2015, Brazil had submitted 43 films to the Academy of America. None of them have been awarded a prize to date; four films in 1962, 1995, 1997 and 1998 reached the shortlisted nomination [4]
The record holder among the directors of Brazil, whose work was announced at the Oscars, is Carlos Diegis , who shot six films on this list. In second and third place are Nelson Pereira dos Santos and Bruno Barrett , represented by four and three films, respectively. The films of four other directors - Fabio Barreto, Luis Sergio Persona, Glauber Roche and Walter Salles - were selected to represent Brazil twice.
