"Dogtooth" will "set off" from Greece to Kodak Theatre for the 83rd awards ceremony for the best films according to the American Film Academy. Each country, as an official participant in the contest, sends a total of 66 films but only five films from around the world reach the top positions and can hope that they will be awarded a statuette. "A Greek film is nominated for Oscar after three decades! There is a new wind blowing for the Greek cinema, showing its presence on the world stage more seriously. We all wish "Dogtooth" to take Oscar for a foreign film", states the Greek Film Academy which, last year for the first time, organized an awards festival for Greek films in Greece. Its winner was Yorgos Lanthimos film and it was subsequently sent to the list of nominations for the golden statuette, as an official participant.
