The Ivica Matić Award is an award given by the Association of Film Workers of Bosnia and Herzegovina named after the Bosnian-Herzegovinian film director and screenwriter Ivica Matić.
History edit
Until 1992, The Ivica Matić Award was given for contributions to film, but was interrupted because of the Bosnian War. It was re-established in 2003 and is awarded to members of the Association in two distinct categories of: Outstanding film work of the year and for the Total contribution to Bosnian-Herzegovinian cinema.[1] The prize is awarded annually as a part of Sarajevo Film Festival program and is supported by Film Fund Sarajevo.[2][3][4] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic awards for 2019 and 2020 were awarded in 2021.[5]
