About Us

MtGIFF celebrates the proud history and beauty of Mount Gretna, and honors “The Greatest Life” of Michael Evan Deitzler, who lived fully and passionately, loving family, friends, film and all things Mt. Gretna – which has raised artists, like Evan, for generations. MtGIFF hopes to cultivate and spread the creativity of filmmakers from all over the world by means of coming together and celebrating film “Under the Trees of Old Chautauqua.”
