WINDRIDER FORUM 2015: 11th Anniversary Jan 22 – Feb 1, 2015

Welcome to the Windrider Forum

The Windrider Forum was launched at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival as an immersive experience between filmmakers and film lovers designed to facilitate thoughtful conversation, awaken compassion, and inspire change. Since then we have hosted Forum events in a variety of local communities and other festivals. And, now the Windrider Web Fest will feature a new short film and interactive experience each week on this website and on our “Riding the Wind” Facebook page.

Enjoy the films. Join the conversation.
