Mountainfilm Graz is an international film festival that has been taking place in Graz, Austria, since 1986. It was founded by the Austrian mountaineer Robert Schauer who has continued to organise it to this day. The festival will take place from 14th to 18th November 2023 and Forever Everest, the film of Sabrina Filzmoser's expedition from sea level to the summit of Mount Everest, will be featured and officially nominated.

In 2022, Sabrina reached the summit of Everest, bringing with her the judo values that have helped her to build a philosophy, where caring about local communities, preserving the environment and fostering messages such as Judo for Peace and gender equity, are core values.

In May 2022, an IJF team followed Sabrina on her way back from Everest and produced the Forever Everest documentary, which was selected by the festival. We wish Sabrina and the film good luck.
