The selection of the national submissions for the competition for the OSCAR® in the category International Feature Film are mostly organized by the respective national film institutions. In Germany, German Films is responsible for the preparation, organization and implementation of the selection procedures. In this function, German Films' responsibilities are strictly of organizational nature. German Films itself is not represented in the selection committee.
