Bergfilmfestival "Abenteuer Berg ­ Abenteuer Film"

DAS KINO has served as the venue for the international mountain film festival "Mountain Adventure – Film Adventure" since 1994. Its top-notch films present the many-faceted dimensions of mountain climbing and alpine sports.

Starting off as a supporting program, part of the event has virtually become a festival of its own: films are shown from every region of the world dealing with nature, the environment or human living conditions, calling attention to ethnographic circumstances.

The Mountain Film Festival in Salzburg is also a forum for contacts and encounters. Discussions on red-hot topics are on the program as well as reports ranging from current medical findings to alpine safety or the effect of global warming.

For the first time in the festival's history, a film prize will be awarded. The LOCAL HEROES AWARD for the best film from Salzburg has a production budget of 3,000 euros for young filmmakers up to the age of 30. Submissions for the LOCAL HEROES AWARD: bergfilmfestival@daskino.at
