The Robert-Prisen (Robert Award) is an annual award given by the
Danish Film Academy, launched in 1984. It is the Danish equivalent of the American
Oscars, British
BAFTAs for films, Australian
AACTA Awards or French
César. The award—voted only by academy members—is an acknowledgment by Danish industry colleagues of a person's or film's outstanding contributions during the previous year. Since 2013, awards have been given to television series and actors as well. The Robert was awarded for the first time in 1984 and is named after the statuette's creator, the Danish sculptor
Robert Jacobsen. == Categories ==
