WILD AND WORKING LANDS FILM FESTIVAL

Inspiring audiences to better understand our current world and work toward a future where people and natural environments prosper together.

What are we interested in?

 

Welcome to the Festival

From our home at the University of Wyoming, we embrace films set in our surrounding ecoregion—including wild, rural, and urban areas of the Great Plains, Rocky Mountains, and high desert sagebrush steppe—as well as stories from afar that can inform our experience in the American West.
