Every year the Banff Mountain Film Festival showcases amazing films, including on their World Tour.
However, these events only happen once a year. So every couple of months I hunt online and prepare a Mini Film Festival for home.
The following are films we’ve enjoyed for free online in Canada. Enjoy the inspiration!
