Iceland has a notable cinema film industry. There are many actors to list who have caught international attention. The most famous film, and the only one to be nominated for the Oscar and European film awards, is Children of nature, directed by Fridrik Thor Fridriksson. This film brought Icelandic cinema to the international scene which has since grown to its height, with films such as Nói Albinói (Noah the Albino), by Dagur Kari Gunnarson, seen as a descendent of the Icelandic film tradition.
Famous Icelandic director Baltasar Kormákur also directed Hafið and A Little Trip to Heaven.
