2015 Robert Awards Winners

Watched for a while the streaming of the awards ceremony, but was kind of irregular and stopped watching. Still was able to see the big winner of the night, the one that made his first public appearance in Denmark in almost four years, the outstanding director -no matter his antics-, the great Lars von Trier. His director's cut, his own edit, the longest version of his film, collected eight Roberts out of the 16 nominations Nymphomaniac Directors's Cut had.

Lars von Trier Robert swept left the other top nominees with two awards each, with the exception of Niels Arden Oplev's Kapgang that left empty handed.

Winners are in *BLUE.  To check winners in all categories go Academy official site here, available only in Danish or go here for English.

There is one movie that I'm still looking forward to watch since Cannes 2014, When Animals Dream and only hope that can watch it soon. Update: movie is great but not as good as I hoped.
