The Film Festival is in its 30th year and just like many a non-profits it has always had an interesting time keeping the bank account full, but despite the challenges, the maturity and age of this film festival makes it stand out.
‘“It turned out to be very successful,” said Karin Bearnarth, president of the festival's board of directors. “It gave these films with this subject matter a voice.”
And giving filmmakers a voice is one of Breckenridge Film Festival's aims — and one of the elements responsible for its popularity since it began in 1981.” reported the Summit Daily. image from "Noise"
