The '''Luxembourgish film industry''' is quite small. However, many films have been made in the country, both by native filmmakers and by people from other countries.

In 1993, {{ill|Dammentour|de}} by [[Paul Scheuer]] (AFO-Productions) and ''[[Hochzäitsnuecht]]'' (Paul Cruchten) won awards at the [[Max Ophüls Festival]] in [[Saarbrücken]].

Since 2003, the [[Luxembourg Film Award]] is awarded for the best productions of Luxembourgish cinema.
