Last saturday night the annual
Edda Awards were handed out here in Iceland. These are our "Oscars" if you will and like the Oscars it's usually one project that has the most nominations. This year it was the box office behemoth
Mr. Bjarnfredarson and the TV series that spawned it,
The Prison Shift, that took home the most statues. Together
Ragnar Bragason and Co won eight of the eleven nominations, Best Feature, Best TV series, Best Director, Best Male Lead and Male Supporting Role, Cinematography, Script and Costume Design.
Other winners were Fridrik Thor Fridriksson's Mamma Gogo for Best Music, Production Design and Female Lead. Dreamland for Best Documentary and The Big Rescue for Best Children Material.
You'll find trailers for these films below.
