The Ecoprod Award was given to the Cannes competition film <em>Jeunes M\u00e8res<\/em> (<em>Young Mothers<\/em>) by Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne. With their production company Les Films du Fleuve they limited the movement of equipment and reduced the energy consumption.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The feature film <em>Jeunes M\u00e8res<\/em> takes place in a maternity home that takes in young women in difficulty and their children in Belgium,. The production obtained permission to shoot in one of these facilities. In order to reduce the environmental impact of set construction, the set designer Igor Gabriel reused numerous materials, furniture and accessories. Moreover, Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne used artificial light as little as possible so that they didn\u2019t need any generators.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Dardenne brothers set up their production offices at the P\u00f4le Image in Li\u00e8ge, Belgium, a business cluster partly powered by green energy. Cast and crew were accomodated near the Li\u00e8ge train station. To reduce the number of vehicles, crews travelled to the filming locations in minivans. For the travels between Belgium and France they also used the train. For the catering, the production used a local canteen, which has vegetarian meals on the menu. The post-production of the film was done in France in collaboration with MPC Mikros, that has a green energy contract with Total Energies. The carbon footprint of <em>Jeunes m\u00e8res<\/em> came down to about 122 tonnes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Jury Prize was given to<em> Laurent dans le vent<\/em>, the second feature film by Anton Balekdjian, L\u00e9o Couture and Matt\u00e9o Eustachon, which was shot in the Hautes-Alpes and in Lyon. The story is about a young man who is searching for the meaning of life. The leading actors are Baptiste Perusat and B\u00e9atrice Dalle. The producer Antoine Salom\u00e9 emphasized that it was a very collaborative project where everyone shared ideas.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Special Mention went to <em>Amour Apocalypse<\/em> by Anne \u00c9mond, a film about climate anxiety, that premiered in the Quinzaine des Cin\u00e9astes at the Cannes film festival.\u00a0 The filmmakers developed\u00a0 a sustainability plan for this production.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Photo: \u00a9 GFS<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On the occasion of the Cannes Film Festival, French association Ecoprod announced the winners of the 2025 Prix Ecoprod, for which eighteen production were shortlisted.
