Passes can be picked up any time during the festival at the festival check-in table.

Each film receives 2 Filmmaker Passes, which gives the passholder
free entry into all festival screenings.

Please note that passes are to be used by two specific people only. 
Passing the passes around to others for free tickets is strictly prohibited
and violations of this rule may result in forfeiting of the passes.
