ROBERT - DANISH FILM AWARD NOMINEES 2020
The graphically distinct ROBERT statuette might be small in size, but it is heavy in form and importance to all film- and tv-professionals in Denmark as it is their colleagues in the Danish Film Academy who both nominate and single out the best achievements of the year.
The award show will take place Sunday Jan. 26, 2020 at 17:30 at the Tivoli Hotel & Congress Center. The show will be live-streamed by Blockbuster at www.blockbuster.dk/robertprisen.
Below are all the nominated films and series for the ROBERT 2020.
