Following the determination of French director Jean Jacques Arnold's film "Wolf Totem" on September 23 to represent China in the 2016 Oscar For Best Foreign Language Film campaign, so far, a total of 61 countries and regions have announced the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film competition film representing their own countries and regions. Among them, there are many popular seed players such as "Assassin Nie Yinniang" in Taiwan, "Love of One Hundred Yuan" in Japan, and of course, there are new faces like Paraguay. It is reported that this is the first time that Balaqui has participated in the Oscars since the establishment of the Oscars in 88 years. So the question is, which countries are the current films that are sure to participate in the 2016 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film?
Africa
It is now certain that only two African countries submitted entries, namely "Aida" from Morocco and "Thina sobabili: the two of us" from South Africa.
Asia
It is no surprise that Taiwan chose "Assassin Nie Yinniang" as the representative of the Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars; China chose the French director's "Wolf Totem"; for Japan, the boxing movie "Love of One Hundred Yuan" replaced the previous hit "Sea Street Diary"; and the newly promoted Asian film powerhouse South Korea chose the historical era theme film "Si Mourning".
Middle East
Iraqi cinema ushered in a new spring after the fall of Saddam Hussein, and this representative film "Stone Will Not Forget" is the best proof. In addition, the Middle East also has "baba joon" from Israel.
Central America
Mexico chose "Six Hundred Miles" as its film after a decision; the small country of Guatemala chose "Life Under the Volcano", which appeared at the former Berlin Film Festival; Panama chose the documentary "Caja 25" as its representative.

Germany, known for its expressionism, ended up choosing Sony Classic's Labyrinth of Silence; the French also unexpectedly chose Mustang after much thought; in addition to Ireland's Viva, Austria's Goodnight, Mommy, Italy's My Mother, Belgium's Super New Testament.

The glory of Nordic cinema can be traced back to the Seventh Seal in the era of Ingmar Bergman, but in recent years Nordic cinema has been brilliant. In the 2016 Oscar for Best Foreign Language, the Nordic countries are poised to launch, followed by Norway's "The Wave", Sweden's "Cold Branches", Finland's "Swordsman", Iceland's "Ram".
