The Luxembourgish film industry is quite small. However, many films have been made in the country, both by native filmmakers and by people from other countries.
In 1993, Dammentour by Paul Scheuer (AFO-Productions) and Hochzäitsnuecht (Paul Cruchten) won awards at the Max Ophüls Festival in Saarbrücken.
Since 2003, the Luxembourg Film Award is awarded for the best productions of Luxembourgian cinema.
