MONTREAL -- Canada announces its Oscar hopeful today.
Telefilm Canada is holding a press conference in Montreal to reveal the feature film it's submitted for consideration in the best foreign-language film category.
Canada has had four nominees compete in this category in the past six years.
They include Denis Villeneuve's "Incendies," Agnieszka Holland's co-production "In Darkness," Philippe Falardeau's "Monsieur Lazhar" and Kim Nguyen's "Rebelle."
The submission is chosen by a committee of 23 voting members representing major government agencies and national film industry associations.
Last year, Canada submitted Xavier Dolan's acclaimed feature "Mommy," but it failed to earn a nomination.
