The following is a list of notable films produced in Iceland by Icelanders. Star marked films are films in coproduction with Iceland. According to Icelandic name tradition, Icelandic surnames end in -son or -dóttir with few exceptions, such as one of Iceland's most famous Baltasar Kormákur and Sólveig Anspach. Although Arne Mattsson is Swedish, his film is included because it is based on a book by the Icelandic Nobel Prize-winning author Halldór Laxness.
