b'Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga was a 2020 musical comedy film directed by David Dobkin, and written by Will Ferrell and Andrew Steele.

The movie was intended for release in May 2020 to coincide with the actual Eurovision Song Contest, but was postponed due to the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic, with the final film arriving on Netflix in June.
