Rocky Mountain Women’s Film is back in-person for the first time since the pandemic started, but will retain some of its popular online features, too.
Linda Broker was immediately electrified by the Rocky Mountain Women’s Film Festival — a concept she’d never seen or even heard about — when she moved to Colorado Springs in 1993.
The annual event runs on the aforementioned volunteer love, but also the work of hundreds of international and local filmmakers, including all types of women . It’s not a huge festival, typically selling fewer than 2,000 individual tickets for its screenings on the Colorado College campus, having grown out of its first home at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center.
The latest is the Saturday, Aug. 13, showing of Cinema in the Park — a party in itself with picnicking, food trucks and live music starting at 6:30 p.m., followed by an 8:45 p.m. screening of “The Summer of Soul” documentary. It’s free and takes place at Monument Valley Triangle Park at 150 W. Cache La Poudre St. in Colorado Springs.
