40 years of Mountain Films in Calgary

The first time we showed the mountain film in Calgary was in 1920. We showed 4 films that I had rented from various Canadian libraries. In addition we started bringing international mountaineering and adventure speakers. Over the next twenty years we brought in over 50 speakers.
By 1982 we started to show the Best of the Banff Mountain Film Festival films at the University of Calgary Science Theatre 148. The our total program consisted of three films in a single show! That was in 1980.
Now, forty years later, we show two unique programs over thirteen screening as we continue to bring you the best mountain and adventure films. That is the passion of Mountain Film-Calgary.
