5Point Adventure Film Festival

Come together. Return changed. In this soulful place we are catalyzed to learn, expand and engender newfound understanding to inspire others on their journeys.

On the edge between desire and fear, between the known and unknown, is a place deep inside us all where the spirit is transformed — pushed beyond its limit by our deliberate commitment to usher in something new and original. It is this spirit, this thirst for adventure that the 5Point Film Festival celebrates and shares with the community and filmmakers that gather for its annual Festival in Carbo

ndale. We are all ambassadors of the environment. The 5Point Film Festival inspires us to explore wild places and to return with a renewed vigor to protect our natural world. Proceeds from the 5Point Film Festival, a 501(c)3 non-profit, benefit 1% for the Planet, Roaring Fork High School Garden+Greenhouse Project and other non-profits throughout the Roaring Fork Valley and beyond.

Led by five guiding principles, 5Point champions adventure storytelling to ignite the human spirit and catalyze community. The films at 5Point transport us—to a place on the edge between desire and fear, between the known and the unknown, is a place deep inside us all where the spirit is transformed.

Over the last 19 years, we have forged a community where adventure is more than adrenaline and stories that awaken the human spirit are championed.

Come together. Return Changed.
