Extreme Ascents: VIMFF 2025
The Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival (VIMFF) returns to the Rio Theatre in November for a curated selection of must-see adventure films featuring a lineup of adventure-inspiring, thought-provoking films. Watch stories of identities being carved out on the slopes, breathtaking mountain-sport achievements, and learn more about the wild spaces we’re so lucky to live and work within.
Pushing human limits on the world’s harshest peaks. Stories of speed, solitude, and survival collide.
From record-breaking speed climbs in the Alps to Denali’s brutal winter summit, these films capture mountaineering at its most extreme. With stories of loss, resilience, and wild ambition, Extreme Ascents 1 delivers raw, high-stakes expeditions on the big screen.
