Film Screening organised by “THE HIMALAYAN CLUB”
The Banff Mountain Film Festival is one of the flagship programs of the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity. It is one of the world’s pre-eminent mountain festivals. We at The Himalayan Club believe that mountaineering is a way of life, and a sport, that brings out the true spirit and inherent mental, physical, and moral strength in man. With the idea of spreading the awareness of adventure to old and young alike through exciting films and many seminars, we have taken the initiative of screening these chosen award winning films to as many cities and towns in India as possible.
Book Presentation ‘Across the Himalaya’ by Vineeta Muni on the 28th September, 5pm onwards.
