Nine foreign-language films are on the short list in this year’s Oscar race.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences says a committee of “several hundred” members selected the nine films from 65 that qualified in the category.

Still in contention for an Academy Award nomination are “El Secreto de Sus Ojos” from Argentina, “Samson & Delilah” from Australia, Bulgaria’s “The World Is Big and Salvation Lurks around the Corner,” ”Un Prophete” from France, Golden Globe winner “The White Ribbon” from Germany, Israel’s “Ajami,” Kazakhstan’s “Kelin,” ”Winter in Wartime” from the Netherlands and Peru’s “Milk of Sorrow.”

Nominations for the 82nd annual Academy Awards will be announced Feb. 2.
