THE FFF TEAM
Volker Hölzl
Founder of the festival and all-round talent for all economic, creative and logistical matters. Volker checks the partners, the cinemas and the entire tour as well as the good mood for the crew on the bus.
Harry Putz
Founder of the FFF and final authority on the selection of festival films. Harry is a filmmaker himself and has a special sense for what it means to manage a production from vision to cinema screenings. On the FFF stage he guides through the evening and interviews the athletes.
Martin Obermayr
Editor-in-chief
As a skilled worker for text elements Martin likes to play with letters. At the FFF he is allowed to do so basically without supervision. He makes sure that we start conversations in the summer and don’t lose our language in the rather hectic autumn.
Hannes Kropik
Editor
Hannes Kropik, journalist, winter enthusiast and passionate passive sportsman. He has been professionally involved in freeriding for years. Already on tour with the Freeride Film Festival in 2017 as a social media person and co-host, now back at it again as a writer, poster and podcaster.
Lena Öller
Lena writes as a freelance journalist for Bergwelten magazine, among others, and is a press officer for the climate protection association Protect Our Winters. In 2024, she will be moderating the Freeride Film Festival for the first time, guiding the program together with Martin Misof and interviewing the athletes and filmmakers for the FFF Instagram account.
