This fall, Outdoor Research will become the sponsor and exclusive apparel partner of the 5Point Film Festival. The 5Point Film Festival and Outdoor Research share a common goal: to tell inspiring stories; and they have already achieved success together in many film projects, such as Huayhuash, and Road From Karakol — a film in which one of Outdoor Research’s ambassadors, Kyle Dempster, plays a leading role. This film won the Best Film Award at the 2013 5Point Film Festival.

About the 5Point Film Festival
Established in 2008, the 5Point Film Festival is on a mission to inspire all forms of adventure, connect generations of adventurers through shared life experiences, engage and unite passion with conscience, and educate and cultivate through film. The 5Point Film Festival creates a variety of film events, including an annual four-day festival held in Carbondale, Colorado, as well as other events across the country. It brings together passionate athletes, artists, producers, filmmakers, and short documentary creators to continuously deliver unique cinematic experiences. The 5Point Film Festival also supports and encourages emerging filmmakers through the 5Point Film Fund, and organizes the Dream Project — a scholarship program for high school students focused on adventure. Together with the growing outdoor community, the 5Point Film Festival celebrates and shares the spirit of adventure and the longing to explore. The 5Point Film Festival is built on five guiding principles: Respect, Commitment, Humility, Resolve, and Balance. 5Point believes these five principles are also the cornerstones of a life dedicated to adventure, connecting us all through our shared passion for exploring and pushing boundaries.
