Accessibility

The festival has made every effort to include open captions for in-theatre screenings but there are a films/programmes that do not include captions and they have clearly been noted on their film detail pages on our website. For digital screenings, some captions may be closed-captioned or may only include partial captions, but these too are clearly indicated on the website.

Website Accessibility: The festival has made an effort to make our website compatible with screen reader technology, including providing image description tags for most images and intuitive page design. Our website features enlarged-type and high-contrast modes for those with low-vision or visual impairment.

For Further Contact: These initiatives are part of an evolving accessibility practice at the8fest as we strive to broaden access to d/Deaf and disability communities. We plan to increase accessibility practices to the festival year after year. You can reach us at the8fest@gmail.com.
