Prix Iris for Best Film

The Prix Iris for Best Film (French: Prix Iris du meilleur film) is an annual film award presented Québec Cinéma as part of its Prix Iris program, to honour the year's best film made within the Cinema of Quebec.[1]

Until 2016, it was known as the Jutra Award for Best Film in memory of influential Quebec film director Claude Jutra.[2] Following the withdrawal of Jutra's name from the award, the 2016 award was presented under the name Québec Cinéma.[2] The Prix Iris name was announced in October 2016.[3]

Producing duo Luc Déry and Kim McCraw received the most nominations and awards. Together, they were nominated for twelve films and won six awards, while Déry received another nomination and win for Soft Shell Man (Un crabe dans la tête) before their partnership. The pair also won two consecutive awards thrice, first in 2007 and 2008, then in 2011 and 2012 and finally in 2022 and 2023.
