This year, the Mountain Film Festival that's hosted by the Banff Centre is going virtual—spotlighting a series of films that celebrate the outdoor adventures of dedicated filmmakers and their subjects.
The 45th Mountain Film Festival will feature a total of 75 films over the course of nine days, including both full-length feature films and short films. A few noteworthy feature films to make their debut at the festival include 'Bear-Like,' which follows two adventurers on their travels in Alaska where they come into contact with grizzly bears, and 'K2: The Impossible Descent,' following a solo mountaineer from Poland who attempts the world's second highest mountain without the use of supplemental oxygen.
