Coming to Whitefish, Montana | June 11–13, 2026
Westland Impact Festival Powered by Battery Tour isn’t just a weekend event. It’s a gathering of people who care deeply about where we’re headed—and how we get there.
A space where storytelling meets innovation.
Where creativity meets purpose.
Where ideas don’t just inspire… they move.
Over three days, Westland will bring together filmmakers, artists, entrepreneurs, and change-makers for an experience rooted in connection, culture, and impact.
Here’s a glimpse of what’s already taking shape:
A curated lineup of independent films exploring human resilience, culture, sustainability, and the future we’re building.
Feature films include:
Crystal Cross, written and directed by Richie James Follin (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep, This Means War), award winning American musician, writer, actor, filmmaker, and a proud citizen of the Cherokee Nation.
Farmer’s Daughter, directed by Melissa Bloom (Adult Swim’s Robot Chicken and David O’Russell’s American Hustle), founder of The Sisters Bloom, an eco-conscious stop-motion animation studio in Kalispell, Montana.
Big Mountain Soul - Ski Africa, co-directed by Brendan Russo & Cameron Sale (Breckenridge, CO local), produced by Jonathan Correia and John M. O’Connor, the film delivers high-intensity adventure with cultural depth.
Immersive activations and community experiences designed to bring people together in unexpected and meaningful ways, inspiring connection, collaboration, and shared experiences that carry forward beyond the festival
