Winners of the Swiss Mountain Film Festival

The 2nd edition from 12th to 18th August 2013

THE IDEA

Well aware that the Swiss mountains are one of the broadest and richest natural environments in the world, as well as a fruitful economic, cultural and touristic region, the Association International Festival of Cinema, in collaboration with the Municipality of Pontresina, decided to launch the ‘Swiss Mountain Film Festival’ in August 2012.

The aim of this Italo-Swiss project is to pay a tribute to the mountain areas of Switzerland and of the whole world, that is to the so-called Highlands of the World.


The Filmfestival

‘Swiss Mountain Film Festival’ is addressed to all those directors who have chosen the mountain as the main subject of their cinematographic works, paying particular attention to its landscapes and to the culture and traditions of its people.

The competition is open to all films and documentaries having the
highlands of the world, and especially alpinism, as their main subject.

The aim is to dedicate a whole week to the cinema and the mountain, a combination of two passions which will create a unique and unmissable event.


'ABOUT TIBET'
A special section of the contest


As a tribute to the High Lands of the world par exellence, the edition 2013 of Swiss Mountain Film Festival will dedicate a whole section of the contest to films set in Tibet or Nepal, with their landscapes, their people, their history, their fascinating culture and traditions.

Special Prize for the best Swiss Film

As a tribute to the wonderful Nation which houses the Festival, at the end of the edition of this year, a special prize of the Jury will be given to the best Swiss film (Swiss director or film production company).

The Photofestival

is open to all amateur photographers, photography lovers and professional photographers.
Photography, an amazing way to fix with a simple click a magic moment, that will last forever.

The Contest has only one section dedicated to the mountain, paying particular attention to its landscapes and to the culture and traditions of its people.
