Presented by Patagonia, the Wild & Scenic Environmental Film Festival is the largest festival of its kind in the US. Supported through a massive grassroots effort, Wild & Scenic is a festival by activists, for activists. We screen the best environmental 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.

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, and speakers. The event also includes a variety of happenings in town: parties, wine tastings, café talks, book signings, and art shows.

Wild & Scenic Environmental Film Festival - January 9-11, 2009  Nevada City, CA USA
