The Luxembourg film industry is quite small, but this is unsurprising given that the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg has a population of 576,000 people. However, many films have been made in the country, both by native filmmakers and by people from other countries.
In 1993, Dammentour by Paul Scheuer (AFO-Productions) and Hochzäitsnuecht (Paul Cruchten) won awards at the Max Ophüls Festival in Saarbrücken.
