February 29 - March 1: Fernie, British Columbia, Canada; 7:00PM

The Fernie Mountain Film Festival will be screening seventh annual Media That Matters Film Festival winner Garbage Dreams as part of its shorts program. The Film Festival runs from February 29th through March 1st at the Fernie Community Centre in British Columbia, Canada.

The Fernie Mountain Film Festival is a two-day event "dedicated to filmmakers who spark awareness of mountain cultures, fragile environments, and the passion and perseverance of global explorers."

This year, two $400 cash prizes will be awarded for best local film and audience favorite. March 1st, from 1-3pm, will be a free children's matinee with short films just for the little ones.

Tickets for adults are $15 for the two-night pass or $10 on a per night basis and children are $5 per night and can be purchased online here. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Ghostrider Adventure Camp, which offers outdoor opportunities to children who otherwise lack access to a mountain environment.
