Prix Iris for Best Documentary Film
The Prix Iris for Best Documentary Film (French: Prix Iris du meilleur film documentaire) is an annual film award presented by Québec Cinéma as part of its Prix Iris program, to honour the year's best documentary film made within the cinema of Quebec.
Until 2016, it was known as the Jutra Award for Best Documentary in memory of influential Quebec film director Claude Jutra.[1] Following the withdrawal of Jutra's name from the award, the 2016 award was presented under the name Québec Cinéma.[1] The Prix Iris name was announced in October 2016.[2]
Patricio Henríquez is the most nominated and decorated filmmaker in this category, receiving three awards from five nominations. Producer Colette Loumède is the only person to receive multiple nominations in the same year in this category, with three films nominated in 2015, including eventual winner Finding Macpherson.
Two ties occurred in this category: À Hauteur d'homme and Roger Toupin, épicier variété both won the award during the 6th Jutra Awards, while La classe de Madame Lise and Gilles Carle: The Untamable Mind (Gilles Carle ou l'indomptable imaginaire) tied during the 8th Jutra Awards.
Cielo, Bestiaire and Manufacturing the Threat are the only documentaries to be nominated for Most Successful Film Outside Quebec. Three documentaries were nominated for the Public Prize award: Call Me Human (Je m'appelle humain), The Perfect Victim (La parfaite victime) and eventual winner The Rose Family (Les Rose). Of these, only Call Me Human (Je m'appelle humain) also received a nomination for Best Documentary Film.
