Sur Award for Best Actress

The Sur Award for Best Actress (Premio Sur a la Mejor Actriz Protagónica), is an award given annually by the Argentine Academy of Cinematography Arts and Sciences to the best leading performance by a female actor.

The Argentine annual film awards were suspended in 1955 with the military coup d'état known as the Revolución Libertadora. An analogous initiative took off in 2006, after the present academy similar to the one dating back to 1941 and dissolved in 1955 was founded in 2004.
