The 6th annual Mountainfilm on Tour in Savannah will be held Friday and Saturday, January 23rd – 24th, 2015 at the Trustees Theater,  featuring award-winning documentary films and forums with guest filmmakers from Telluride Mountainfilm’s 36th annual festival.  Mountainfilm on Tour visits 120+ locations on five continents, reaching over 40,000 people every year.   

We are More Than Mountains.  While the festival’s name reflects its Colorado roots,  the films it shares come from places and people around the world. Mountainfilm  celebrates the Indomitable Human Spirit with documentaries that cover a wide range of themes: cultures worth exploring, adventures worth pursuing, environments worth preserving, and conversations worth sustaining.  Links to our 2015 selection of films can be found on our website: http://www.mountainfilmsav.org/festival/films/

Each 2-hour festival screening features a unique set of short and full-length films that promise a night of thought-provoking adventure.
