All live talks will be recorded and captions will be added after the live event commences. You can expect captioned recordings to be available on each event page on SFFILM.org 3-5 days after the date of the live event.

Films go offline once the streaming window ends. This means the streaming window will override your viewing window, even if you begin a film less than 24 hours before the streaming window ends.

For example, almost all films will become unavailable at 11:59 pm (PDT) on Sunday, April 18. If your film hasn’t finished by 11:59 pm (PDT) on April 18, it will turn off and become unavailable. We recommend beginning any films on April 18 before 9 pm (PDT), to ensure you can watch them to completion. Films with limited streaming windows may become unavailable earlier than 11:59 pm (PDT) on April 18.

The “streaming window” is the duration a given film will be available as part of the 2021 festival. The “viewing window” is the amount of time you have to watch the film once you hit play: 24 hours.

You can pause your film and return to watch it later, as long as it is within the 24 hour viewing window.
