The Rocky Mountain Women’s Film Festival is back October 17–19 at Colorado College, and trust us, this is not your average weekend at the movies. Think three days of powerful storytelling, laughter, goosebumps, and conversations that stick with you long after the credits roll. From river rafting adventures to thought-provoking documentaries, every film has one thing in common: a woman behind the lens.

In this episode, we sit down with Executive Director Nicole Nicoletta for a sneak peek at the longest-running women’s film festival in North America. She shares insider tips for planning your perfect festival day, the must-see films everyone will be buzzing about, and why this event has become a cultural cornerstone in Colorado Springs. Whether you’re a film buff or a casual moviegoer, there’s something here for everyone.
