The Academy Award (Oscar) for Best Foreign Language Film is a yearly US award for the best non-English film released in the period October - September in the country of origin. ^*

Each year in each country a jury in that country can select the best non-English film of that country. These form the so-called longlist. Five of these are nominated; thus these are all from different countries. One of them wins. Below, the winning film is bolded, and the four non-winning nominated films are also listed.

The 78th Academy Awards, in general honoring the best in film for 2005, but in this category regarding release in the country of origin in the period October 2004 - September 2005, were held on 5 March 2006. Below they are labeled "2005".
