The Prix Iris for Best Animated Short Film (fr|Prix Iris du meilleur film d'animation) is an annual film award presented by Québec Cinéma as part of its Prix Iris program, to honour the year's best animated short film made within the cinema of Quebec.
Marc Bertrand received the most nominations, eleven, and won three awards. Bertrand became only the second person to receive four nominations in the same category in 2017. Patrick Bouchard received the most awards, four, from five nominations.
Seven short films nominated for this award were also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film: The Old Man and the Sea (which won both the Oscar and Prix Iris), My Grandmother Ironed the King's Shirts, When the Day Breaks, Nibbles, Madame Tutli-Putli, Sunday (Dimanche) and Blind Vaysha (Vaysha l'aveugle).
