Vancouver International Mountain Film Fest Tour

Come check out the best of the VIMFF! Lineup: 1. Expedition Manaslu – Moving Adventures (30 min) In fall 2007 both Munich-based extreme alpinists Benedikt Böhm and Sebastian Haag took off to Nepal to climb „Manaslu“ (8.163 m). Accompanied by the French junior alpinist Nicolas Bonnet they wanted to reach the eighth highest peak of the planet at top speed and ski down again - right through the death zone. 2. Bro vs Mtn – Brock Anderson (15 min) Bro vs. Mtn tries to capture the light side of the struggles a “bro” may encounter when riding his bike on the mountainous trails. 3. What would Darwin think? Man vs nature in the Galapagos - Jon Bowermaster (25 min) After Charles Darwin first visited the island archipelago of Galapagos in 1839, it took him another twenty years to decipher the scene he’d witnessed, the most perfectly preserved biodiversity on the planet. 4. The Argentine Project – Freeride Entertainment (7 min) 3 friends taking a trip and hoping to create a mountain bike flick with one bike, 2 cameras… and a little Spanish. 5. Samsara - Renan Oztruk (19 min) In the heart of the lofty, knife-sharp Vindhya Mountains in India sits a 2200 m rock and ice route that resembles a massive shark fin and rises from the ocean of crags. This fin, which is twice as long as anything on El Capitan and just as steep, has denied many notable climbers from reaching its summit. 6. Tera Antarctica – Rediscovering the Seventh Continent - Jon Bowermaster (49 min) For six weeks adventurer Jon Bowermaster and his team explor the Antarctic Peninsula by sea kayak, sailboat, foot and small plane, observing the fast changing evolution of this most remote place.
