The 6th Edda Awards were held on 14 November 2004 at Nordica Hótel in Reykjavík.
The awards were hosted by actress/comedian Helga Braga Jónsdóttir and TV presenter Kristján Kristjánsson.
[1] The film Kaldaljós, directed by Hilmar Oddson, was the winner of the evening taking five awards and receiving eight nominations.
The Best Documentary category was interesting this year since two of the nominated films, Án Titils and Faux - í þessu máli, were about a high profile fraud case, where a great deal of paintings from Icelandic artists had been faked and sold.
[2] Ingvar E. Sigurðsson and Ómar Ragnarsson both won their third Eddas on the night.
