SUMMARY:Mountainfilm On Tour - Boulder
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Backpacker’s Pantry\nDoor time: 7:00 \nShow time: 7:30 \nUsing the power of film\, art and ideas\, Mountainfilm inspires audiences to create a better world. Held every Memorial Day weekend\, the Mountainfilm festival brings together a community of filmmakers and change makers\, showcasing documentary films that celebrate adventure\, activism\, social justice\, environment and indomitable spirit. Hosted by Daniel Junge! \n \nFilms:\n \nAbove the Noise \nAdam De Silva \nThe world around us can feel overwhelming and loud. In response\, Maya delves into her practice of skydiving as a means to focus inwards. She gently inspires us to find our own means of grounding ourselves in flow. \n \nDesert Wings \nNathan McBride \nDesert Wings brings the unique sport of paramotoring to light showcasing talented pilots exploring the dramatic landscapes of the American Southwest. \n \nLeaving a Tread \nMaxwell Frank \nAs the popularity of mountain biking grows across Mexico\, riders like Israel Carrillo work to blaze the trail — literally. Carrillo shares the challenges athletes face in a growing sport\, financially and otherwise\, while showing off his hometown of Guanajuato. \n \nObibini \nBenoit Lalande \nObibini is a high-energy dive into Ghanaian women’s joy and liberation through surfing. Since 2013\, the Obibini Surf Club has empowered women to feel welcome at the beach and in the water. \n \nGhost Resorts: Japan \nMichael J Brown & Zeppelin Zeerip \nWith ski lifts no longer spinning and buildings falling into disrepair\, abandoned ski areas are nestled among the snow-drifted peaks of Japan. The country’s massive economic boom in the 1980s fueled a wild demand for skiing and an explosion of new mountain resorts. The financial collapse that followed in 1991 decimated both the Japanese economy and the ski industry. Today\, hundreds of ghost resorts span the mountains as silent witnesses to the pace of change. Yet the deep powder beckons those who seek to experience an unconventional backcountry adventure.  \n \nMr. Cato \nRyan Ross \nMr. Cato is an elementary school teacher and pro BMX flatlander who changes his students’ lives by teaching them how to ride and care for bikes\, as he attempts to bring his sport back from the brink of extinction in the U.S. While overcoming his struggles and vying for a spot in the Summer Olympics\, Mr. Cato uses the two wheels that have given him so much in order to make the world a better place. \n \nThe Draconians \nMaxime Moulin \nSkiers Sam Favret and Nikolaï Schirmer team up in Norway on a ski touring trip of a lifetime. Follow them up and down futuristic lines as they execute their vision as athletes and filmmakers in this thrilling segment from The Draconians. \n \nTime is a Funny Thing \nJeremy Grant \nTime is a Funny Thing is an exploration of time and how doing what we love makes it disappear. In this short film\, professional mountain biker Tyler McCaul looks back on his career through the lens of his older and younger self. \n \nTo Scale: Time \nAlex Gorosh \nOn a dry lakebed in California\, a group of friends attempt to build a scale model of time: a true illustration of cosmic evolution and our place within it. Over miles\, they lay out tiny lights representing important moments in the history of the universe: the Big Bang\, the meteor that killed the dinosaurs and the beginning of human civilization. The result is time represented by distance and the recognition that although we are alive for the briefest moment — in this demonstration\, the width of a hair — our lives are a gift from the universe that we must spend wisely. \n \nRe \nIz La Motte \nTwenty years ago\, Re forged a new path in the outdoor sports community as one of the few women in her field. As an action sports photographer\, she is dedicated to working with and showcasing the strength and individual personalities of female athletes. Re landed the first cover shot of a woman for Backcountry Magazine and the first all-female cover shot for Skiing Magazine. She views her work as a catalyst\, fostering a social shift in the perception of female athletes in popular culture. \n \nLexicon \nAustin Hopkins & Loic Isliker \nA unique group of skiers from around the world come together to celebrate skiing as a catalyst for human connection. As they shred the bottomless pow of Hokkaido\, the transformative power of adventure takes this group from strangers to friends. \nSupported by\n \n \nThere will be no free shuttle service for this event.

SUMMARY:Mountainfilm On Tour - Boulder
DESCRIPTION:Presented by KGNU & Backpacker’s Pantry\n \nDoor Time: 7:00 PM\nShowtime: 7:30 PM \nRuntime: 2 Hours and 17 Minutes \nhttps://www.chautauqua.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/mountainfilm_teaser_2022-23-360p.mp4\n  \nAbout Mountainfilm:\nFounded in 1979\, Mountainfilm is one of America’s longest-running film festivals. The annual festival is held every Memorial Day weekend in Telluride\, CO. Mountainfilm is a dynamic nonprofit organization and festival that celebrates stories of indomitable spirit and aims to inspire audiences through film\, art and ideas. \nMountainfilm on Tour in Boulder will feature a collection of culturally rich\, adventure-packed and engaging documentary short films that align with Mountainfilm’s mission to use the power of film\, art and ideas to inspire audiences to create a better world. Mountainfilm presenter\, Becca Droz\, will guide the audience through the program providing insight on the films\, filmmakers and subjects. Becca Droz is a local rock climber\, climbing coach and guide. She sees climbing as a tool for developing our relationship with self\, other people and nature. \n  \nDescription of films: \nI AM SALMON\nWhit Hassett \nConnecting humanity with salmon and the sea through the subtle art of poetry and Gyotaku (fish rubbing)\, Duncan Berry shares his experience as a longtime environmentalist and former captain of a salmon troller. In adopting the perspective of this transcendent fish\, the beauty and power of the Oregon coast becomes the canvas through which the evolution of the salmon is illustrated. \n \n  \nAMERICAN SCAR\nDaniel Lambroso \nWhen wedding photographer John Kurc decided to spend a few days between assignments exploring the borderlands of southwest Arizona\, he had no idea he would spend the next eight months documenting the devastation of the desert ecosystem created by the construction of Trump’s border wall. In the blitz to build the barrier as fast as possible\, the administration ignored 47 laws that protect bears\, deer\, jaguars and javelina roaming the mountains in both the U.S. and Mexico. In addition to being a failed re-election campaign prop and racist monument\, the wall also inhibits wildlife migration\, putting 70 vulnerable plant and animal species at risk. \n \nFINDING HETCH HETCHY\nJames Q Martin\, Chris Burkard \nWhen the O’Shaughnessy Dam was constructed in 1923\, the Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite National Park became nearly inaccessible to visitors. It has since become the subject of great environmental controversy. Eager to explore this wild and largely unvisited corner of Yosemite\, veteran climbers Timmy O’Neill and Lucho Rivera set out to experience Hetch Hetchy firsthand\, scaling its granite walls and advocating for its restoration. \n \nWOOD HOOD\nAlex Cullen \nDeVaughn is a 15-year-old kid from New York City who loves skateboarding and craves a “quiet place” to escape the chaos of his home\, the city\, and kids that steal from him. The film follows DeVaughn on a weekend-long group camping trip with Camping to Connect\, a BIPOC-led mentorship program that teaches leadership\, brotherhood\, and inclusion in the outdoors. One leader states\, “these kinds of conversations are rare for men that look like us\,” and as the film weaves between the city and the woods\, a place that is unfamiliar and historically inaccessible to these kids\, we witness the joy and growth that is possible when kids have an opportunity to find that “quiet place.” \n \nFLOW (WITH SAM FAVRET)\nMaxime Moulin \nSkier Sam Favret embarks on an adventure of epic proportions\, traversing the slopes of a closed ski resort on a majestic bluebird day. Moulin takes us on a cinematic aerial and symphonic journey as we are enveloped in powerful skiing and the complete unreality of such a serene landscape. \n \nLOON\nJason Whalen\, Chris Zucker \nWhen hiking the Appalachian Trail\, thru-hikers often choose a trail name that says something about their home or their history. Mike Freed\, now in his 80s\, chose the name Loon as a symbol of the spirit of the wild\, interconnected lakes of his Minnesota homeland. The Appalachian Trail is also where Loon had a revelation about what course of action to take with his 2\,000-acre expanse of unfragmented land in the pristine Boundary Waters. \n \nECO-HACK!\nJoshua Izenberg\, Brett Marty \nDue to increased human activity\, desert biologist Tim Shields has been watching the tortoise population of the Mojave desert decline since the 1990s. Rather than continue to sit back and let nature take its course\, Shields combats the depressing nature of conservation biology by accessing its antithesis\, modern engineering. Through the usage of specialized drones\, desert rovers\, laser cannons and fake exploding tortoise shells\, Shields and his colleagues take what control they can over the ecological levers in play to save the tortoise population. Akin to a cathedral builder laying bricks\, Shields may never get to see the true effects of his work\, but he does not let that deter him in his endeavors. \n \nTHE OCEAN SOLUTION\nDarcy Hennessey Turenne \nBren Smith isn’t just redefining ocean farming\, he’s literally turning it upside down. After experiencing a string of pitfalls in conventional fishing\, Smith decided to reimagine the future of aquatic farming by asking the ocean\, “what should our relationship be?” He found his answer and returned to the sea with a new method of restorative ocean farming that produces a sustainable food source\, restores the ocean\, fights the climate crisis and mimics nature’s penchant for biodiversity. \n \nSTORIES OF YOU AND I\nJohn Davies \nStarring Academy Award-nominated Jonathan Pryce\, Stories of You and I is a series of love letters to the Earth and a plea for environmental justice. What feels like universal memories of moments with the natural world\, are director John Davies’ recollections of a lifetime spent in love with nature. Alongside Davies’ true accounts and personal anguish over the environmental crisis are striking images of the wild that emphasize what is at stake. \n \nPOWDER SNOW HOKKAIDO\nGeorge Knowles \nThe essence of Hokkaido skiing is as pure and unique as each snowflake that falls on this Japanese Island. \n \nEvent image by Melissa Plantz.
