WHERE CAN I FIND A SCHEDULE OF PRESS SCREENINGS?

The information will be updated on the Web site once the screening schedule is confirmed at SILVERDOCS.com in May. If you cannot make a screen time for a film, there will be a screening library where films can be viewed, but not checked out.  Most, but not all films will be in the screening library.

WHEN AND WHERE CAN I PICK UP MY PRESS PASS?

Out-of-town journalists will pick up their pass at the civic building around the corner from the Theater at the corner of Fenton Street and Ellsworth Drive. Details will be included in your acceptance letter. Local media may receive their credentials in advance by mail.
