The Gopo Awards () are the national Romanian film awards, similar to the Academy Awards (US), the Goya Awards (Spain), or the César Award (France). They are presented by the Association for Romanian Film Promotion and were inaugurated in 2007.
Trophy
Established in 2007, the Gopo Awards were named in honour of Romanian film director
Ion Popescu-Gopo, also celebrating the 50th anniversary of his winning a prize in the Cannes Film Festival.
The trophy is a sculpture by Romanian artist
Adrian Ilfoveanu representing Gopo's Little Man, the main character of Gopo's animation films. The Gopo Awards honour the best Romanian cinematic achievements of the previous year (or, in the case of the "Best European Film" award, the best European film distributed in Romania in the previous year).
