Join us for an incredible afternoon as we pay tribute to the folks who paved the way for the outdoor industry and environmental responsibility: Patagonia. The 5Point Film Festival will screen its first feature length film, 180° South, introduced by some Patagonia special guests. This is a program that cannot be missed – old timers and young guns alike!
DIRECTORS: Tiffany Morgan Campbell and Andria Lessler
Chris Malloy’s film strikes so deeply into the heart of Patagonia’s wilderness we come to feel at home there. 180° South: Conquerors of the Useless follows Jeff Johnson as he retraces the epic 1968 journey of his heroes, Yvon Chouinard and Doug Tompkins, to Patagonia. Along the way he gets shipwrecked off Easter Island, surfs the longest wave of his life, and prepares himself for a rare ascent of Cerro Corcovado. Jeff’s life turns when he meets up in a rainy hut with Chouinard and Tompkins who, once driven purely by a love of climbing and surfing, now value above all the experience of raw nature – and have come to Patagonia to spend their fortunes to protect it. DIRECTOR: Chris Malloy
