Brokeback Mountain (20th Anniversary Re-Release)
June 22 - 24, 2025
“I wish I knew how to quit you.” Celebrate 20 years of Brokeback Mountain with SIFF. Ang Lee’s haunting, tender story of forbidden love between two cowboys brought to life by unforgettable performances from Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, was nothing short of revolutionary. A turning point for queer cinema and a landmark in American film, Brokeback Mountain continues to move and challenge audiences two decades later. See it on the big screen while you can.
Winner of three Academy Awards®, including Best Director, Brokeback Mountain is a sweeping epic that explores the lives of two young men, a ranch hand and a rodeo cowboy, who meet in the summer of 1963 and unexpectedly forge a lifelong connection.
