The Adventure Film Festival is an international film festival in Boulder, Colorado.[1] Started in 2004 by local legend and climber Jonny Copp who was tragically killed in an avalanche in 2009 while on an expedition in China, the festival predominantly screens films on adventure, environmental activism, and the outdoors. Adventurers, artists, filmmakers and activists created and run this festival because they 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 to mobilizing people through powerful art, adventure, activism, inspiration and awareness of the world around us. The Adventure Film Festival is rooted in the concept of "making your own legends," thus empowering each of us to create positive change in our world.
Adventure Film Festival is an international forum for the best and most inspiring independent films of the year. The Festival encompasses all aspects of adventure from serious exploration to environmental heroism to gripping tales from the edge of the believable. With films from around the globe, adventure art, and powerful keynote speakers, the annual Adventure Film Festival continues to change lives and inspire attendees in Boulder, Colorado to Santiago, Chile to Sydney, Australia, and many other countries in between.Knight, Wendy (January 6, 2006).
