The Backcountry Film Festival seeks to promote the work of grassroots filmmakers who tell compelling and entertaining stories of backcountry, nonmotorized recreation and environmental preservation. Do you have a compelling story, some quality footage and a keen eye for a fun, educational or juicy topic.
This year’s categories are: Best Short Short (under 5 minutes), Best Environmental Message and Best of Festival.
· Your film should be short—no longer than 30 minutes—and tell a thought-provoking, interesting story of backcountry, nonmotorized recreation or environmental preservation. Your film should take place during or otherwise relate to the winter. We’re open minded about what kind of films we’ll show: documentaries, fiction and experimental films are welcome.
· The Film Festival premieres in Boise November 2012 and travels during the winter months to more than 80 locations throughout the nation.
· Submissions must be in DVD format, please include 3 copies. Your submission must be received in our Boise office by September 15
