list of submissions to the 87th academy awards for best foreign language film
List of submissions to the 87th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language film - wikipedia List of submissions to the 87th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language film Jump to : navigation , search Polish director Paweł Pawlikowski won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film for Ida . The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences ( AMPAS ) has invited the film industries of a number of countries to submit their best film for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film every year since the award was created in 1956 . It is presented annually by the Academy to a feature - length film produced outside the United States with primarily non-English dialogue . The Foreign Language Film Award Committee oversees the process , reviewing all films submitted . For the 87th Academy Awards , held on 22 February 2015 , a submitted motion picture must be released theatrically in its respective country between 1 October 2013 and 30 September 2014 . Submission of a film does not automatically qualify it for the competition ; AMPAS has the final word on eligibility , and has disqualified submissions in the past . One film was accepted from each country , with a deadline of 1 October 2014 ; the Academy published a list of eligible films eight days later . Eighty - three countries submitted films , with four countries entering for the first time . Mauritania submitted Timbuktu , directed by Abderrahmane Sissako ; Panama entered the documentary Invasion , directed by Abner Benaim ; Kosovo submitted Three Windows and a Hanging , directed by Isa Qosja ; and Malta entered Simshar , directed by Rebecca Cremona . In May 2014 , Nigeria announced that AMPAS had approved the first - ever Nigerian Oscar selection committee and they would make their first Oscar submission ; however , they did not submit a film by the deadline . The Phase I committee , consisting of several hundred Los Angeles - based Academy members , viewed the original submissions between mid-October and 15 December 2014 . The group 's top six choices , augmented by three selections by the Academy 's Foreign Language Film Award Executive Committee , constitute the shortlist . Seventy - six films were originally considered , and the nine finalists were shortlisted in mid-December . The list was narrowed down to five nominees by invited committees in New York , Los Angeles and ( for the first time ) London , who viewed three films a day from 9 to 11 January 2015 before casting their ballots . The list of nominees was announced on 15 January 2015 at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Los Angeles . They were Argentina 's Wild Tales , directed by Damián Szifron ; Estonia 's Tangerines , directed by Zaza Urushadze ; Mauritania 's Timbuktu , directed by Abderrahmane Sissako ; Poland 's Ida , directed by Paweł Pawlikowski , and Russia 's Leviathan , directed by Andrey Zvyagintsev . For the first time , the director 's name would be engraved on the Oscar statuette in addition to the country name . The winner was Poland 's Ida , directed by Pawlikowski .
