The Robert Award (Danish: Robert-Prisen) is a Danish film prize awarded each year by the Danish Film Academy.[1] 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.[2]
