Get Inspired

On the edge between desire and fear, between the known and unknown, is a place deep inside us all where the spirit is transformed — pushed beyond its limit by our deliberate commitment to usher in something new and original. In this soulful place we are catalyzed to learn, expand and engender newfound understanding to inspire others on their journeys. It is this spirit, this thirst for adventure that 5Point Film celebrates and shares with the community and filmmakers that gather for its annual Festival in Carbondale and other events throughout the year.

Our Mission

5Point Film is on a mission to inspire adventure of all kinds, to connect generations through shared experience, to engage passion with a conscience, and to educate through film.

Giving Back

We are all ambassadors of the environment. 5Point Film inspires us to explore wild places and to return with a renewed vigor to protect our natural world. Proceeds from the 5Point Film Festival, a 501(c)3 non-profit, benefit 1% for the Planet and other non-profits throughout the Roaring Fork Valley and beyond.

5Point Film is also directly giving back to and inspiring area high school students through our Dream Project scholarship program. This program offers five outstanding students the chance to explore their personal boundaries and dreams. The winning students best exemplify 5Point Film’s five guiding principles and will receive a $1,500 scholarship to embark on a life-changing opportunity, give back to a community, and follow their passions.

Our 5 Points

5Point Film is built on five guiding principles: respect, commitment, humility, purpose and balance. We believe these same principles also form the foundation for individuals who lead lives of adventure and connect all of us who share an elemental passion to explore and expand our boundaries.

RESPECT
For each other, for the environment, for the experience and for the knowledge we inherit from those who inspire and teach us.

COMMITMENT
To overcome fear and give ourselves completely to the challenge at hand while leading a vital existence and never allowing ourselves to become complacent.

HUMILITY
To assume the courage and the discipline to listen to our intuition and not our egos, always mindful of our place in the natural order.

PURPOSE
To muster the motivation and conviction necessary to pursue our highest aspirations in the face of adversity.

BALANCE
To maintain our focus and energy in life, in nature, and on the journeys we undertake while things we cannot control shift around us.
