Selection for Two US Film Festivals

A Dairy Story has been selected for two US film festivals, both of which take place in February 2026: Frozen River Film Festival in Minnesota and Wild & Scenic Film Festival in California.

Frozen River Film Festival in Winona, Minnesota will host the film’s USA premiere. The festival’s mission is to “engage, educate and activate viewers to become involved in the world,” showcasing films that explore environmental issues, sustainable communities, and diverse cultures - stories often not covered in mainstream media.

Wild & Scenic Film Festival in Nevada City, California operates with the mission “where activism gets inspired.” The 2026 festival theme is ‘Mobilize’ - described as a call to action and a celebration of movement and progress towards tangible change. Wild & Scenic is known for its “on tour” program which takes selected films to communities across North America over the following two years.
