Frozen River Film Festival

The art of documentary. The warmth of Winona.

FEBRUARY 9-16, 2025: Celebrating 20 Years!

The Frozen River Film Festival offers programs that engage, educate and activate viewers to become involved in the world. These programs provide a unique perspective on environmental issues, sustainable communities, adventure travel and sports, and diverse cultures while showcasing the art of documentary film. Our films often explore issues, concerns, and life’s successes that are usually not covered in the local media.
