The 12th Jutra Awards were held on March 28, 2010 to honour films made with the participation of the Quebec film industry in 2009.[1] The nominees were announced on February 16.[2]

Through the Mist (Dédé, à travers les brumes), a biopic about Dédé Fortin, lead the ceremony with ten nominations. It ended up winning four awards, including Best Actor for Sébastien Ricard and Best Original Music which was awarded posthumously to Fortin.

Denis Villeneuve's Polytechnique won the most awards of the night with five, including Best Director and Best Supporting Actor for Maxim Gaudette, but lost Best Film to Xavier Dolan's I Killed My Mother (J'ai tué ma mère) who took home four awards, including Best Screenplay and Best Actress for Anne Dorval. Dolan became the first person to be nominated for Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Screenplay for the same film.

1981 won two awards, including Best Supporting Actress for Sandrine Bisson. The Master Key (Grande Ourse: la clé des possibles) received nine nominations, but ended up winning none. It tied the record set by Babine for most nominations without one for Best Film.
