Code of Conduct

SFFILM believes in the power of film to expose us to different perspectives and bold visions, to inspire us, to reflect our identities, and to celebrate our lives.

 

SFFILM is committed to providing our audiences, guests, and partners an experience that is, first and foremost, safe. Although safety can be different for each individual related to personal preferences or expressed identities, we define it to mean hosting spaces and experiences that are free of harassment and discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender performance, race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, class, age, or ability. Harassment, threatening behavior, and violence will absolutely not be tolerated. We reserve the right to revoke, without notice or refund, tickets, passes, credentials, or access to SFFILM Festival events and venues.

 

You can reach out directly to safety@sffilm.org if you believe you’ve observed or experienced a violation of this policy, and SFFILM will work to assess the situation and to respond as soon as possible. Please remember that notifying SFFILM does not constitute or replace a notification to local law enforcement. Emails sent to safety@sffilm.org will be received by the SFFILM Systems and Finance Manager and the Managing Director.
