Academics have nominated 11 films in 15 categories out of a total of 29 registered feature, documentary and animated films (released in 2020 and 2021).
The National Film Awards are taking place after a one-year break due to the small number of premieres in 2020, caused by the pandemic.
The awards are organised by the Slovak Film and Television Academy. The ceremony will take place at the Historic building of the National Theatre in Bratislava and it will be broadcast live on RTVS.
