The Eagle Huntress

The film is about a young 13 year old girl who wants to become an eagle huntress. No one accepts her for being a girl and they’re all negative about it. She catches he own eagle and trains it then ends up winning the very difficult eagle festival competition and they still were negative and didn’t accept her as an eagle hunter/huntress. She went out with her dad and they went out eagle hunting and caught a fox. This film was very impactful on me and I know it’s probably on others also. It proves that people shouldn’t be judged or labeled by their gender, girls are just as tough and strong as boys are. Girls can do whatever they want.

MountainFilm Festival

My favorite film that we saw today was Generation Up. It was about these 2 kids who are brother and sister, at the age of 14 and 15, who are amazing rock climbers. It was cool to see these young kids doing crazy, dangerous and amazing things. It was a good message to all kids telling us that we can be and do ANYTHING we set our minds to, no matter our age. It gave us a great confidence booster for our dreams. Even as kids we can make a big impact on others, whether that means rock climbing to send out a message to help kids believe more or donating money to others who need it. We can make a difference.
