About the iF3 Festival:
The International Freeski Film Festival was founded in 2007 to recognize and celebrate the excellence in freeskiing. It is the biggest festival tour of its kind, travelling the globe to present the world’s best ski movies of the year. The festival’s reputation and recognition stem from being the only independent ski film award ceremony with an international and diverse jury panel in which not only athletic performances are rewarded. In fact, a major part of the gala is dedicated to the artistry and production work involved in bringing ski films, and now snowboard films as well, to life.
