The APRECI Awards (Spanish: Premios APRECI) are awards given by the Asociación Peruana de Prensa Cinematográfica, which reward the best Peruvian film productions of the year. The award has been awarded annually since 2009.[1]

History[edit]

The Asociación Peruana de Prensa Cinematográfica was founded on August 4, 2007, at the 11th Lima Film Festival.[2][3] 2 years later, they created the APRECI Awards with the intention of recognizing quality Peruvian and Latin American feature films and, in turn, promoting the art of cinema.[4]

The first award ceremony took place on December 18, 2009, at the José María Arguedas Cultural Center located in Lima, Peru.[5] where the film The Milk of Sorrow by Claudia Llosa was awarded as Best Peruvian Feature Film.[6] During the first 8 years since its creation, only a single award was awarded: Best Peruvian Feature Film. However, starting with the ninth ceremony, new categories were implemented: in 2017, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Screenplay and Best International Premiere; in 2019, Best Documentary; and in 2022, Best Director.[7][8][9]
