Pakistani film wins Jackson Wild Media Awards
“Moklani — The Last Mohanas” has won the prestigious Jackson Wild Media Awards, becoming the first Pakistani film to do so at the awards, often referred to as the “Oscars of nature documentaries.”
“Wow.. Wow.. Our film Moklani has become the first-ever Pakistani Feature Film Winner at the 2025 Jackson Wild Media Awards celebrated worldwide as the Nature Oscars,” Jawad Sharif Films announced on Instagram.
“We dedicate this award to the Mohana fisherfolk, to Pakistan, and to all indigenous communities whose stories, struggles, and wisdom inspire us to keep telling the stories that matter.”
Directed and produced by award-winning filmmaker Jawad Sharif, the Pakistani film was chosen from a record-breaking pool of more than 500 entries.
According to the producers, the film highlights the story of the Mohana people of Manchar Lake, an indigenous fishing community whose centuries-old traditions are rapidly vanishing.
Produced by Jawad Sharif Films with the support of the National Geographic Society and Climate Kahani, “Moklani – The Last Mohanas” is both a visually striking and deeply human portrait of a community on the brink of cultural extinction.
Their struggle reflects the larger climate crisis Pakistan is experiencing.

Billy Bob Thornton wasn’t really happy about turning 70.
Billy celebrated his milestone 70th birthday in August.
He opened up about aging in a new interview with CBS News’ Sunday Morning, sharing that it was scary.
“You know what, it’s so funny you’re scared of every milestone. But this one actually did affect me in a way that I had to, you know, have a few meetings with myself late at night,” said Thornton.
Ultimately, the Oscar winner focused on the positive aspects of aging, such as gaining respect.
“We’ve all seen each other get older. And when I see that wisdom and see the respect that people have for them, it just kind of makes everything melt away somehow,” he said. “I mean, I’m in a successful band and I’m in a successful show. Every day when I wake up I just say I’m blessed. That’s really it.”
For his milestone birthday, the Landman star stayed at home with his kids and wife Connie Angland and enjoyed some vegan cake.
“Connie asked me what I wanted and I said, ‘Nothing, absolutely nothing. As a matter of fact, don’t mention it to anybody,’ ” he told Rolling Stone in another recent interview.
“We really just hung out here at the house, just me and Connie and the kids,” Billy said, “and had a nice time, and they got me a vegan cake, which — I can’t eat wheat or dairy, so that was awesome. Anytime a guy like me could have cake, it’s a great day.”
Billy Bob Thornton will be seen in season two of Landman.
