Eighty-seven countries have submitted films for consideration for the upcoming 91st edition of the Oscars, and according to our count, 20 titles in the running, or 23 percent, are women-directed or co-directed. Nominations won’t be announced until January 22, 2019.

Among the features in the race are Rungano Nyoni’s “I Am Not a Witch,” a satire about a girl accused of witchcraft, Nadine Labaki’s “Capernaum,” a portrait of a boy who sues his parents for bringing him into a world full of suffering, and “Birds of Passage,” a drama following an indigenous family involved in drug trafficking in Colombia co-directed by Cristina Gallego.

Women helmed and co-helmed titles accounted for 27 percent of submissions in the foreign language category last year. Ildikó Enyedi’s slaughterhouse romance “On Body and Soul” was the only one to receive a nod. The year prior to that, women directed or co-directed 15 percent of the films in the race, and Maren Ade’s father-daughter dramedy “Toni Erdmann” scored a nomination.

The Oscars will take place February 24.
