FILM AND PROGRAM INFO COMING SOON.
Shining Mountains Film Festival, founded by the Aspen Indigenous Foundation in 2018, is an essential platform to give voice to American Indians. Featured films and documentaries reveal the unspoken history of our nation, the generational traumas and the struggles that Indigenous Peoples of America face daily. This annual festival showcases the rich culture, wisdom, traditional ways, beauty, and diversity of the first inhabitants of America.
The festival welcomes all who wish to learn about American Indian traditions, building bridges through education, with the intention of healing both Native American communities and mainstream America.
