Telluride Mountain Film Festival WIN (for Equal Footing)

Oh my, am I ever psyched about this one.

Our documentary film, Equal Footing, just won in the Seven Summits Awards for Documentary at it’s premier festival, the Telluride Mountain Film Festival.  That sentence is a mouthful.

It’s a huge honor to receive this laurel from the festival that premiered our film.  We got a lot of positive feedback after the first viewing, including my favorite bit of praise for which there is sadly no graphic award:  Lynn Hill personally thanked us (4 dudes) for making a film about women in the alpine.  I was honestly so nervous that our perspective as males would obstruct a film about the female experience of alpinism (admittedly, pretty niche), but Lynn’s love made it all better…and since then the film has gone on to tour with countless festivals around the world.

Keep an eye out for our web release of the film if you haven’t caught it already - and I look forward to sharing about our next big adventure in film (which may or may not have to do with a certain range in British Columbia ;)).
