Tahoe Film Festival

SWEP's second annual environmental film festival, Tahoe Film Fest will present an important section of new and exciting environmental feature films that have been screened in various festivals throughout the world.

Tahoe Film Fest brings a section of American Independent films which celebrates the art of maverick filmmakers with new ideas . . . and we will be presenting a section of new Mexican films that will focus on the art of Mexican culture and the fact that Mexican filmmakers have garnered so many Academy Awards over the past three years.

The final night of the four-day Tahoe Film Fest includes a gala benefiting Sierra Watershed Education Partnerships (SWEP) and the festival closing films at Northstar. A choice of two environmental films - Antarctica: Ice and Sky or Before the Flood will be presented that evening followed by the gala. Appetizers and beverages will be served at the gala and are included in the ticket price. A silent auction will also be part of the night's festivities. All proceeds from the gala benefit SWEP.
