The Jussi Awards are Finland's premier film industry event, recognizing annually the past year's excellence in Finnish film making by directors, actors, and writers.[1]
The first Jussi Awards ceremony was held on 16 November 1944 at the Restaurant Adlon in Helsinki. The award is probably the oldest film award in Europe.[2]
The award trophy is a gypsum statuette depicting a standing nude man with a hat. It was designed by sculptor Ben Renvall.
