Passes Fine Print:
All AFI FEST screenings require tickets. A pass alone does not grant entry to any screening. A passholder must reserve a ticket in advance of screenings on FEST.AFI.com. Passes are nontransferable. No refunds or exchanges. A pass does not allow for the booking of concurrent screenings. Additionally, a pass only allows the passholder to select one ticket per individual screening.
