All films are open-captioned, with audio description available on request. ASL interpreters will be present at all screenings and the Festival Reception. Every effort is made to accommodate everyone’s needs. Wearing an N-95 or KN-95 mask is required, and you are requested to stay Fragrance Free. Smoking is not permitted within 200 feet of the theater entrance.

Note that the Presidio is a National Park, governed by federal law. That means that possession or consumption of cannabis, including vape pens, is illegal, with no exceptions for medical use, so please do not bring cannabis with you to the park.

There will be an online Encore Screening some time in September, details to be announced; get on the mailing list for the particulars.
