The American Conservation Film Festival is thrilled to be presenting its 4th Best of Fest at the Barns of Rose Hill. This annual event showcases
some of ACFF’s best and favorite films from past festivals to a new audience in advance of the film festival October 4 -6 and 11-13 in Shepherdstown, West Virginia.
We’re going to the birds this year and invite you to join us for two informative and beautiful films about birds and how to protect them. An added bonus will be a presentation by wildlife veterinarian and bird caretaker extraordinaire, Dr. Belinda Burwell, who owns and operates Wildlife Vet Care in Millwood, Virginia.
The evening’s lineup:

6:40 – Bird of Prey – ACFF’s Green Spark Award for Highlighting Conservation Heroes at the 2018 Festival, this awe-inspiring and gorgeously-shot film explores the vanishing world of the Great Phillippine Eagle and profiles the courageous heroes determined to save it.
