2005
In 2005, 24 Austrian films were produced either as solely Austrian productions, or with an Austrian majority interest and opened in the cinemas. 15 of them were documentary films, and nine were feature films. A further six films (three documentary films and three feature films) were produced with an Austrian minority interest co-production partner – for example, the award-winning documentary Darwin's Nightmare, a production with a majority French interest.
