Congratulations to Ben Rivers for winning the Pardo Verde at Locarno Film Festival for his feature film Mare's Nest (2025)!
Based on Don DeLillo’s climate crisis play The Word for Snow, the film envisions a post-apocalyptic world ruled by children without governance, doing what they please.
Since 2022, the Pardo Verde has been dedicated to recognising films that tackle ecological issues in innovative and impactful ways, offering audiences fresh and thought-provoking interpretations that inspire change.
