The ribbons, which were described as an"emblem of compassion and solidarity for those who have been forced to flee their homes because of war, conflict and persecution", were made by refugees at the company Knotty Tie, which helps refugees resettle in Denver, Colorado.Speaking on the red carpet, Nighy, who was a first-time Oscar nominee at 73, said he had worn the ribbon at the request of Blanchett.
Director Daniel Roher dedicated the award to Navalny and political prisoners around the world, saying:"Alexei, the world has not forgotten your vital message to the world."
