This is a list of submissions for the 96th Academy Awards for the Best International Feature Film. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) has invited the film industries of various countries to submit their best film for the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film every year since the award was created in 1956.[1] The award is presented annually by the academy to a feature-length motion picture produced outside the United States that contains primarily non-English dialogue.[1][2] The International Feature Film Award Committee oversees the process and reviews all the submitted films.[2] The category was previously called the Best Foreign Language Film, but this was changed in April 2019 to Best International Feature Film, after the Academy deemed the word "Foreign" to be outdated.[3]
For the 96th Academy Awards, the submitted motion pictures must be first released theatrically in their respective countries between December 1, 2022, and October 31, 2023. The deadline for submissions to the Academy was October 2, 2023. 92 countries submitted films, and 88 were found to be eligible by AMPAS and screened for voters.[4] Namibia submitted a film for the first time,[5] and Burkina Faso made a submission for the first time since 1989.[6]
The 15-film shortlist was announced on December 21, 2023, to be followed by the official nominations on January 23, 2024.[4][7]The Zone of Interest by Jonathan Glazer won the award for the United Kingdom.
