Wild and Scenic Film Festival

The Wild & Scenic Environmental Film Festival is the largest festival of its kind in the US. We screen films that inspire people to re-examine their values and behaviors, providing a context to translate these individual commitments into social action for environmental change. At Wild & Scenic, filmgoers are transformed into a congregation of committed activists, dedicated to saving our increasingly threatened planet.  We showcase environmental and adventure films that illustrate the Earth’s beauty, the challenges facing our planet, and the work communities are doing to protect and heal the environment.  Through these films, Wild & Scenic both informs people about the state of the world and inspires them to take action.  Our intimate small town setting nestled in the Sierra Nevada foothills is the perfect complement to the personal connections and networking opportunities that the festival offers to the artists, activists and community members advancing the global environmental movement. A favorite among filmmakers and film lovers alike, Wild and Scenic screens only the finest environmental and adventure films and hosts activists, celebrities, filmmakers, authors and speakers. Our festival also includes a variety of happenings in town: workshops, parties, wine tastings, café talks, book signings, and art shows.
