Krakow Events December – 2007

5th Krakow Mountain Film Festival

The 5th Krakow Mountain Film Festival is probably by far the biggest annual mountaineering event in Poland. Between 5 and 9 December 2007 there will be an opportunity to admire the best mountain film productions, participate in meetings with the greatest Polish and international climbing stars, watch climbing competitions and also to take part in numerous workshops. For those who would be especially interested, here is a list of the films qualified for the contest:

* Dosięgnąć dzwonka, director: Maciek Książko
* Gulmit Tower Expedition 2007, director: Bartłomiej Latasiewicz
* Inwigilacja krzona, director: Dominik Pamuła
* Karambar, director: Piotr Pawlus
* Karawana marzeń, director: Marek Kłosowicz
* Matt, director: Marek Dudek
* Nangie wilki, director: Robert Szymczak
* Niematotamto, director: Marcin Tasiemski
* Smak wielkiej góry, director: Wojciech Ostrowski
* Swiss Bajbors, director: Tadeusz Kieniewicz
* Ścieżka Góry, director: Marek Kłosowicz

The festival offers an interesting selection of several Polish climbing films, but it also gives an opportunity to catch up with the programmes of the Banff (Canada) and Kendal (UK) Mountain Film Festivals. This year’s guest stars will be three world class climbers: Mick Fowlers, Steph Davis and Dean Potter.
Additionally, numerous and varied events like workshops, attempts at breaking the world record in jumps, slideshows, outdoor equipment fairs and first aid course will certainly make the festival worth visiting by anyone whose passions are mountains and extreme outdoor sports.
