Film award

Film award is a cinematic award which can be awarded in several categories. Unlike the film festival, the film award is not accompanied by a public screening of competitive films. Film awards are usually awarded based on the results of a secret voting of experts and less often on the results of the jury discussion.

The first award ceremony "Oscar" was held in 1929. Now the Oscars ceremony is broadcast live in dozens of countries around the world. Unlike most film festivals, "Oscars" are awarded by the results of a General vote of the Academy members, and not by the choice of the jury.
