Wild & Free Film Festival hosts evening of Adventure Films

GOLETA, Calif. (KEYT) The Wild & Free Film Festival held its first Spring kick-off event in Goleta.

Movie lovers filled Camino Real Cinemas in Goleta to see 8 short adventure films.

The founder of the festival called it the Kendal Mountain Tour.

Gareth Kelly chose films featured in a similar festival in the United Kingdom.

"There's a couple of films tonight that really remind me of where I grew up, there is one about Fell running, which is people that go run around in the hills, and there is one about skateboarding young girls, and there is even one about surfing grandmas in Australia, so there is a little bit of something for everyone," said Kelly.

The second annual Wild & Free Film Festival will take place in the fall.

Thanks to sponsors including Santa Barbara Honda and Santa Barbara Acura the festival has been able to host more events.
