Here is your sneak peek at a few of the films you can see at the 2014


My Fist Fish (Ben Galland)
A boy catches his first fish. After an epic battle, the boy has a chance to hold the fish and once they make eye contact, the memory is etched into the child's brain forever instilling a connection to the wild and the foundation for environmental stewardship.


Backyard (Deia Schlosberg)
Click here for movie trailer.
Backyard tells the stories of five people in four states, all with very different backgrounds and perspectives, but all at odds with the natural gas extraction occurring around them. Despite their differences, unnerving similarities emerge from their shared experiences with the massive unseen entity that is "the industry."


El Campo es Vida (Bridget Besaw)
Javier Vera is a third generation gaucho living in Patagonia, Chile - a region that has deteriorated significantly due to agricultural use by previous generations of gauchos. While maintaining a traditional lifestyle, Javier is one of many young locals working in conservation-based tourism initiatives across Patagonia that are serving as new models for conserving the region's wild lands.


TEAM Network: Badru's Story (Benjamin Drummond, Sara Joy Steele)
Each year 60 camera traps are set in the rugged forests of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda. This team of scientists has collected over one million images of mammals and birds to help guide conservation efforts.
