Lineup Sneak Peek
Tides of Change
Embark on a breathtaking journey beneath the waves, guided by an experienced underwater photographer who is deeply passionate about marine conservation. Through stunning visuals and intimate encounters with marine life, Tides of Change showcases the hidden beauty of the ocean and devastating impact of human pollution.
One Inch from Flying
In One Inch from Flying, a young climber grapples with the complexity of modern life, and celebrates the sense of balance he feels rigging and walking an alpine highline in Washington’s North Cascades.
LET MY PEOPLE GO SKIING
Confronted with the frustration of false narratives and intergenerational trauma, Tlingit skier and scientist Ellen Bradley returns to her traditional homelands in Southeast Alaska. Weaving ancestral knowledge, scientific understanding, and a passion for skiing, Let My People Go Skiing follows Bradley’s journey helping her community reclaim its place at the forefront of stories told about their homelands. By dismantling barriers to snowsports for Alaska Native youth, Bradley empowers the next generation in hopes that the mountains teach them what it will take to protect their culture, language, and home forever.
We hope to see you there!
