Mountainfilm on Tour
We have a passion for the planet, for wild spaces, for entrepreneurs, different cultures, daring souls, and curious animals. These films tell the stories of the world outside our immediate surroundings, of inspiration, strength, perseverance, and daring to dream.
Mountainfilm celebrates adventure and the indomitable human spirit – and we’re excited to bring that energy and spirit to our community for the 5th annual Mountainfilm on Tour: Saugatuck Film Festival.

Friday | 7 PM
The Medley
144 minutes
Motivation and moments of extraordinary awakening can be found in the most unexpected places. From hysterical laughter, to thoughtful consideration, to tearfilled silence. This carefully crafted medley of shorts is designed to provide moments of intrigue for any viewer.
Friday | 9:30 PM
The After Party: Wildermiss
When the good times are rolling, we WON’T let them stop. After the credits roll on the Medley – grab a beer and get ready for a rocking good time by Colorado-based indie rock band, Wildermiss.
Wildermiss is made up of Emma Cole on vocals and synth, Joshua Hester plays guitar, and Caleb Thoemke plays drums. They have sold out all of their hometown headlining shows since 2017 and steadily gained momentum nationwide with multiple support tours and festival spots. The band is currently working on the follow up to their quarantine singles “Supermagical” and “Italy” with plans to tour until their van dies again like it did in Michigan that one time.

113 minutes
It’s a big green world, let’s explore it. Jump around to different environments, cultures, causes, and traditions that may be out of reach without the power of film. For the love of the outdoors, creatures of all kinds, and meaningful moments – join us on the Big Green World Adventure.

Playlist 2: Indomitable Spirit
113 minutes
Stories of those who are impossible to subdue – who never give up in the face of adversity – and who somehow find a way to continue on. From fast-paced moments of heart-racing adrenaline, to soft, meaningful pauses in time… deep inspiration will be found in every tale of the Indomitable Spirit.
Saturday | 7 PM
Feature Film: The Ants and the Grasshopper
90 minutes
How do you change someone’s mind about the most important thing in the world?
Anita Chitaya has a gift; she can help bring abundant food from dead soil, she can make men fight for gender equality, and she can end child hunger in her village. Now, to save her home from extreme weather, she faces her greatest challenge: persuading Americans that climate change is real. Traveling from Malawi to California to the White House, she meets climate skeptics and despairing farmers. Her journey takes her across all the divisions shaping the US, from the rural-urban divide, to schisms of race, class and gender, to the thinking that allows Americans to believe they live on a different planet from everyone else. It will take all her skill and experience to help Americans recognize, and free themselves from, a logic that is already destroying the Earth.
