The Backcountry Film Festival (BCFF) is produced each year as a celebration of the human-powered experience and a gathering place for the backcountry snowsports community. The 2018 Melbourne showing for the Backcountry film festival will be held in March or April 2018.

Most years we also show a short Australian film. These have included:

  • The Hunt for White October, about a late season mission to Mt Loch
  • No Lift Lines Here, about a mid winter trip to The Bluff
  • Find Your Line, about snow boarding on the western slopes of the Snowy Mountains
  • OFF GRID, focusing on a backcountry trip to Mt Bogong

If you have a film you would like to be included with the BCFF this year, please get in touch.

It would need to be an Australian made backcountry film, ideally filmed locally. It would need to be in a format that’s ready to show, up to 15 minutes in length. We don’t have the ability to pay for the screening.

If you think you might have something suitable please get in touch: cam.walker@foe.org.au

Further details on the 2018 showing will be posted soon.
