The Vancouver International Mountain Film Fest kicks off today

Winter might be winding down (hopefully), but this is a great way to cap it off. The Vancouver International Mountain Film Fest kicks off in the city today, with both in-person and virtual options to enjoy. Here’s what to know about it.

Back for its 25th anniversary, VIMFF is offering more than 50 films about, you guessed it, mountain sports. The lineup includes films focused on climbing, skiing, environmental issues, and more. Check out feature films, settle back for a whole night of shorts, or enjoy some creator talks alongside them.
