Friday 5th December 7pm – Tickets £14
The focus that evening is on exploring uncharted territory by ski and snowboard, journeys that are taken amidst stunning scenery. Adventurers share a passion for the unknown in daylight, but we also look at the perspective of shapes and shadows that take on a whole new meaning in the dead of night.
Vancouver Mountain Film Festival World Tour
Saturday 6th December 9.30am – Tickets £8
We highlight the contributions women have made to mountaineering over the years. How they conquered adversity in health, how they followed in the footsteps of female climbing pioneers and how we connect with the land we walk on through science and art.
Saturday 6th December 2pm- Tickets £12
These films show what can be done through the sheer power of mind over matter. An amputee, a young girl with autism, high‑altitude skiers and a ground-breaking water-skier will prove that while there’s a will there’s a way. Gripping and very much edge‑of‑your‑seats entertainment.
Saturday 6th December 7pm – Tickets £17
Grizzly bears, strength-sapping skiing odysseys, ultimate climbing adventures, climate changes – it’s all there. Oh, and an appearance in one documentary by pop icon Miley Cyrus. The DMFF promises a wide diversity of film content, and delivers every time!

3,000 feet: The Highlander, the Early Mountaineers and Scotland’s Highest Mountains
A film by Kevin Woods and Lindsay Hill 95 minutes This is the remarkable story of the origins of Scottish mountaineering and of Hugh Thomas Munro, the man whose name has become synonymous with Scotland’s highest mountains.
While modern-day athletes test themselves against these timeless mountain summits, Munro’s enduring list of “Mountains Exceeding 3,000 Feet in Height” has evolved into a cultural cornerstone of modern-day Scotland, building a legacy that Munro himself could never have imagined.
Scottish mountaineering as we know it originated in the sciences, academia and the arts. But these hill-going pioneers came across a society in the Highland glens that had only just undergone immense upheaval with far‑reaching consequences. Their journeys bridged societies, language, class and culture in pursuit of the very summits we still climb to this day.
After the screening there will be a Q and A with Lindsay Hill.
