Created and produced by Adventure Entertainment, this is Australia’s original women’s adventure film tour. This short film festival is a celebration of the inspiring women around us who are doing extraordinary things in the name of adventure.
Once again, the evening’s guest emcee is Asheville local, business owner and previous holder of the Fastest Known Time on the Appalachian Trail, Jennifer Pharr Davis. Blue Ridge Hiking Company and She Jumps will be onsite with information and volunteers to answer all of your adventure questions!
Every year, our selection of unique films are carefully chosen to show women achieving their personally adventurous goals. Being adventurous doesn’t always have to mean being the fastest, going the highest or doing the most extreme things. Adventure for most of us is just stepping outside of our comfort zones and climbing our own personal Mt Everest. The films showcase real stories about women from a variety of cultures and sports around the world. We aim for the festival to be enjoyed by women, children and men of all ages.
This year’s line-up features a diverse set of films with women of all ages including Australian Olympic champion Torah Bright, ultra trail running champion Lucy Bartholomew and many more, including women in climbing, distance swimming and mountain biking. The official WOMEN’S ADVENTURE FILM TOUR line up includes 7 short films in the 2 hour set.
All ticket buyers will have the opportunity to enter an awesome prize draw from the WOMEN’S ADVENTURE FILM TOUR official partners, including Flikr*, Cee Coach and others.
The WOMEN’S ADVENTURE FILM TOUR is exempt from classification, but the films are suitable for the entire family and would normally achieve a PG-13 rating, though, there might be some instances of “spicy” language peppered throughout.

Most of what we think we know about moonshining history is wrong. That’s one of the themes of the Center for Cultural Preservation’s new documentary film on regional moonshine history, The Spirits Still Move Them. David Weintraub, award-winning director/producer of forty history films, interviewed nearly three dozen moonshiners and their families in our region to tell a story about moonshine history that’s never been relayed before. According to Weintraub, “The myth that all moonshiners are violent, lazy, drunk criminals hiding in the woods wearing long beards and longer arrest records has been recounted by the media for over 100 years. In reality, liquor production was hard, backbreaking work that only the most entrepreneurial farmers conducted which they did in order to survive difficult circumstances and put food on the table. It’s a fascinating story and far more interesting than the myths and distortions we’ve heard.”
This event airs live via Zoom. We will have time for audience questions after the approximately 1-hour film.
Most of what we think we know about moonshining history is wrong. That’s one of the themes of the Center for Cultural Preservation’s new documentary film on regional moonshine history, The Spirits Still Move Them. David Weintraub, award-winning director/producer of forty history films interviews nearly three dozen moonshiners and their families in Western North Carolina, East Tennessee and the Dark Corner of South Carolina to tell a story about moonshine history that’s never been relayed before.
According to Weintraub, “The myth that all moonshiners are violent, lazy, drunk criminals hiding in the woods wearing long beards and longer arrest records has been recounted by the media for over 100 years. In reality, liquor production was hard, backbreaking work that only the most entrepreneurial farmers conducted which they did in order to survive difficult circumstances and put food on the table. It’s a fascinating story and far more interesting than the myths and distortions we’ve heard.”
The film digs deep into Southern Appalachian history exposing the stereotypes and fabrications about mountaineers that have been fodder for movies and cable television programs for generations from the Beverly Hillbillies to the Moonshiner Show. Says Cody Bradford, fifth generation moonshiner and owner of Howling Moon Distillery in Asheville, “People think all moonshiners were outlaws but it was the federal government that enacted an excise tax after the Civil War that poor farmers had to bear. It was either starve or make liquor and it’s not difficult to understand which one they chose.”
Cody and his family are chronicled in the film as are moonshiners from Yancey County to Spartanburg County. Most surprising to many is that many moonshiners were African-Americans, women and Native Americans. And that moonshine played a central role in medicine since the Civil War.
This film is made possible by Blue Ridge National Heritage Area Partnership, the Community Foundation of Henderson County and North Carolina Humanities. The Center for Cultural Preservation is a cultural nonprofit organization dedicated to working for mountain heritage continuity through oral history, documentary film, education and public programs.

His films have appeared on PBS stations around the country and at film festivals around the world. His credits include Guardians of Our Troubled Waters and Come Hell or High Water: Remembering the 1916 Flood.
