The Golden Eagle Award for Best Foreign Language Film (russ. Золотой Орёл для лучший зарубежный фильм в российском прокате), or simply Golden Eagle for Best Foreign Language Film (though the correct title of this category is not known), is an annually on January awarded category and one of 20 presented by the Russian Academy of Cinema Arts and Sciences (Национальной Академией кинематографических искусств и наук России) and the only one awarded to non-Russian-language films.[1] The ceremony is held at the Mosfilm studios, where some of the most acclaimed Soviet features were filmed.[1] The prize, a golden alloyed eagle made from copper and its pedestal from jade, was created by sculptor Viktor Mitroshin.[2] It was instituted by Nikita Mikhalkov as a counterweight to the prestigious Nika Award established in 1987 and given to films produced in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States. The Golden Eagle Award is often described as the Russian Golden Globe and the Nika Award as the Russian Academy Award.

Every year the ceremony presenting three nominees from three different countries; exceptions were the years 2008 and 2010, where all nominees were from the United States. The first film in a foreign language film to be awarded was the romantic comedy Amélie, a co-operation between the countries Germany and France.[3] The most recent award was made to Academy Award-winner Avatar, awarded in 2010,[4] which holds the record for the worldwide highest gross.[5]
