The Vienna Film Prize is awarded to the best Austrian film of the previous year at the end of the Viennale .
history
The Vienna Film Prize was awarded for the first time at the Viennale in 1987. The prize was not awarded in the following years. The prize has only been awarded annually since 1991, when the Viennale was financially upgraded. In 1992 and 2001 two films each received awards.

In 2018, the distinction between documentaries and feature films was abolished under the Viennale director Eva Sangiorgi, both in the program and in the award, and a special jury prize was awarded for the first time .
