The Adventure Film Festival shares an expereince through the eyes of award-winning filmmakers, extreme athletes, and adventurers take a rite of passage to live out your deepest desires in nature’s most mysterious and enchanting kingdoms.

Kayak through the deepest, darkest heart of the Congo, then take flight for five days in a tree canopy without ever coming down, see letters to your children of the future of our world come to life with awe-inspiring art and original scores, and discover how cold true cold can be on the highest summits of peaks in Pakistan in the winter. Dedicated to all aspects of adventure, from the fearless eco-warrior, to the alpine adventurer, all around the world and back again, this year's festival premieres the most exciting and inspirational award-winning independent films that ignite a passion for travel, discovery and change.

Over 40 of the highest caliber films handpicked by the Adventure Film Selection Committee from over 200 entries submitted in a dozen countries will feature in the World Tour this year. The eclectic lineup features exploration, surfing, climbing, biking, skiing, as well as films that tackle environmentalism, global awareness, and social issues.

We believe in the power of the story, especially the narrative of adventure and awakening, to change and challenge the world we live in. Please join us this year as we dedicate this festival to inspiring the individual, affecting change on a global level, and providing a sure fire way to make your own legends.
