This year’s festival theme: Fight or Flight refers to the physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived harmful event, attack, or threat. In our 46th year, our festival theme celebrates stories illustrative of all that it takes to survive. Fight or flight actions exist on a spectrum and can refer to the action of flying toward safety, freezing, fleeing, or perhaps a collective reaction to fight for the survival of an animal, on a more abstract level. We look forward to sharing heartfelt stories reflective of the instinct to survive on our screens as well as behind the camera.⁠
⁠
This theme acts as a twelfth category within the IWFF juried program. Finalists in each category are screened at the festival. yet submissions are also selected to screen outside of the competition with a total of about 60 films included within the Festival. Festival selections are screened in Missoula at the Roxy Theater with ample support for filmmakers to join as guests.⁠
