5 Point Film Festival Returns

The 5 Point Film Festival is happening once again in Carbondale, May 7 – 10. Last year’s event was a huge success with an incredible array of films and speakers, and every show selling out. The event was refreshing in that there was a big focus on humility and respect for the arenas that we practice our sports in, as well as a deeper look at the individuals that are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Here’s the trailer for this year’s festival.

For those who aren’t familiar with 5 Point, here’s some info from their website:

On the edge between desire and fear, between the known and unknown, is a place deep inside us all where the spirit is transformed — pushed beyond its limit by our deliberate commitment to usher in something new and original. In this soulful place we are catalyzed to learn, expand and engender new found understanding to inspire others on their journeys. It is this spirit, this thirst for adventure that the 5Point Film Festival celebrates and shares with the community and filmmakers that gather for its annual Festival in Carbondale.

The 5Point Film Festival is on a mission to inspire adventure of all kinds, to connect generations through shared experience and respect, to engage passion with a conscience, and to educate through film.

Tickets can be purchased online, and I’d recommend getting them in advance, as these shows are sure to sell out once again.

See you there!
