Run the Alps Film Festival 2024, in partnership with On
Watch the 2025 Film Festival here!
Welcome to the 2024 edition of the Run the Alps film festival, with an exciting selection of trail running films for your viewing pleasure! Our four film grants this year, made possible by On, are centered on the theme of Exploring Boundaries. Our grant winners have done just that! In addition to these four short films, we have some stories from our partners at On, and a few surprises for you as well. So, make some popcorn, pour yourself a cafe au lait, kick back and enjoy.
