Hood Community College are pleased to bring the Boulder Adventure Film Festival to the Hollywood Theater and the Mt. Hood Community College campus. The Boulder Adventure Film Festival's World Tour mobilizes this year's finest award winning films, bringing them to life on the big screen in venues around the world- most importantly right here in our community!! Come treasure the moment as we travel through the lens into the minds and locations of the world's foremost adventurers, stirring excitement and emotions within. Based in Boulder, CO, the Boulder Adventure Film Festival is rooted in water, rock, fire, music, ice, humor, and activism. Every Spring, the jury selects films from hundreds of submissions from around the world. This Festival and World Tour were started by adventurers and filmmakers alike in an effort to share the amazing athleticism, exploration, environmental heroism and gripping tales from the edge. The power of story to awaken, to change and to challenge the world motivates those behind BAFF. The show will be approximately three hours long, taking you on adventures in the United States, all the way to the top of Mt. Everest. The films are pre-selected by the festival's jury to provide the highest caliber program.
