Three different juries composed mainly of academy members viewed the submissions. The preselection of 13 films for the Best Documentary Film category was announced on December 11, 2018. On January 7, 2019 followed the announcement of six preselected films for the Best Children's Film category, as well as 23 films preselected for the Best Fiction Film category, plus six preselections for individual achievements.[4]

Nominations[edit]

The nominations were announced on March 20, 2019, in a press conference from the Deutsche Kinemathek by Minister of State for Culture Monika Grütters, the President of the Deutsche Filmakademie Ulrich Matthes and its chairman Benjamin Herrmann.[5] The film Gundermann was nominated in ten categories, Styx in six, The Golden Glove and All About Me in five categories each.[6]

Special awards[edit]

Three categories are not endowed and the recipients are announced ahead of the award ceremony. While the recipients of the Honorary Award and the Bernd Eichinger Award are chosen by juries, the Award for the Largest Audience is automatically given to the majoritarian German film production that had the biggest cinema audience in the preceding year.
