Pascale Marceau devoted as much of her life as she could to exploring some of the highest and most remote places in Canada, never ceasing to be inspired by its grand nature. On January 16, she will share stories of surrendering to a childlike sense of wonder during her 700km ski expedition in the northern wilderness. Don't miss her presentation, Arctic Awe: Rekindling a Sense of Wonder in Canada’s Far North.

Films are not only a vehicle of expression; they reaffirm our right to tell our own stories. Women, genderqueer, Black, Indigenous, and multiracial communities deserve this space. Over the past decade, No Man’s Land Film Festival has leveraged art, advocacy, and activism to challenge mainstream representation of what it means to be an adventurer, and to work towards creating a future where women, trans, and genderqueer folk can thrive in any sport.

Full of truly inspiring and bold films, this festival packs a punch. Join us for two screenings:

PRIDE FILMS: January 31 (includes a panel discussion with Canmore Pride)

WINTER FILMS: February 1 (rad women doing rad things)
