Adventurers, artists, filmmakers and activists created and run this festival because we believe in the power of the story, especially the narrative of adventure and awakening to change and challenge the world we live in. This international team is committed mobilizing people through powerful art, adventure, activism, inspiration and awareness of the world around us. Adventure Film is rooted in the concept of "making your own legends," thus empowering each of us to create positive change in our world.

Every spring our selection committee scores and awards approximately 30 films from hundreds of submissions worldwide. This competitive selection process delivers new productions from Surfing in Indonesia to Climbing in Patagonia, Flying a Hang-glider over Mount Everest to witnessing the first inside documentary about Burning Man. Filmmakers are awarded in twelve categories ranging from 'Best Adventure Sport ' to the 'Activism Through Adventure Award'.

Beyond our Films we run progressive Special Events like Boulder's Own Earth Day Festival. All of these projects take blood sweat and tears and lots of volunteers. 

We are a community festival, a world community. So please get in touch with us and participate.

Sincerely, All of us at Adventure Film
