The Citra Award for Best Leading Actress (Indonesian: Piala Citra untuk Pemeran Wanita Utama) is an award given at the Indonesian Film Festival (IFF) to Indonesian actresses for their achievements in lead roles. The Citra Awards, described by Screen International as "Indonesia's equivalent to the Oscars",^[1] are the country's most prestigious film awards.^[2] They are intended to recognise Indonesian achievements in film and draw the public's interest to the cinema industry.^[3] Initially winners were selected from all entries by a jury, but owing to efficiency concerns and widespread disapproval of winners within the Indonesian film industry, beginning in 1979 the IFF instituted a nomination system in which a committee selected the Citra Award recipients from a shortlist of three to six nominees.^[4]

The Citra Awards, then known as the Indonesian Film Festival Awards, were first given at the IFF in early 1955; that year there were two winners, Dhalia of Lewat Djam Malam and Fifi Young of Tarmina. This duplication, also found in the Best Film and Best Leading Actor categories, was controversial; film critics considered Lewat Djam Malam by far the better film and suggested that Djamaluddin Malik had bought Tarmina's prize.^[5] Succeeding festivals were held in 1960 and 1967. From 1973 the IFF was held annually.^[6] This continued uninterrupted until after the 1992 IFF, when a sharp decline in film production led the festival to be discontinued. It was reinstated as an annual event in 2004, after receiving funds from the Indonesian government.^[1][7] The most recent winner is Cut Mini, who won a Citra Award at the 2016 IFF for her acting in Athirah.

A total of 74 actresses have been nominated for a Citra Award, 24 of whom have won at least one. The most recognised actress at the IFF has been Christine Hakim, who won six awards from ten nominations beginning with Cinta Pertama in 1974;^[8] she credits the award with convincing her to continue acting despite initially intending to be an architect or a psychologist.^[9] Four other actresses have won multiple Citra Awards: Jenny Rachman, Lydia Kandou, Meriam Bellina, Mieke Wijaya, and Tuti Indra Malaon. Four actresses – Jajang C. Noer, Nurul Arifin, Paramitha Rusady, and Zoraya Perucha – have received three nominations without winning. Four films have seen multiple cast members receive nominations. Of these, only Mengejar Mas-Mas earned a win, with Dinna Olivia receiving the award. As of 2013^[update]Dian Sastrowardoyo is the only actress to receive more than one nomination in a single year; in the 2004 ceremony she won a Citra Award for Ada Apa dengan Cinta? and received a nomination for Pasir Berbisik.
