Nine movies are in contention for the foreign-language Academy Award.
The films survived a first round of cuts by a group of Oscar voters, who whittled the 63 entries that had been submitted by their home countries down to nine, Oscar organizers said Tuesday.
In the running for the five nominations that will be announced Tuesday are Austria's "The Counterfeiters," Brazil's "The Year My Parents Went on Vacation," Canada's "Days of Darkness," Israel's "Beaufort," Italy's "The Unknown Woman," Kazakhstan's "Mongol," Poland's "Katyn," Russia's "12" and Serbia's "The Trap."
The films will be screened by a panel of Oscar voters, who will choose the final nominees for the Feb. 24 awards
