** Public safety notice **
As of August 2024, NWFF has adjusted its mask policy from universally required to strongly encouraged at the majority of screenings. In the interest of accessibility, the requirement is still in place for Thursday night screenings and Saturday and Sunday matinees; occasional exceptions will be noted on each events page.
Disposable masks are available at the door for those who need them.

** Visiting Artists **
Join us for a live, movie-themed pun-off before the screening, hosted by Seattles own Forest Ember and featuring a slate of to-be-announced comedians! Buckle up for not only puns, but also idioms, acronyms, and other wordplay delights.
Director Abby Hagan in attendance!
** About the film: **
Puns: love em or hate em, theyre everywhere - and those who can pun with aplomb form their own idiosyncratic, camaraderie-filled subculture. Enter Forest Ember, pun-master extraordinaire and the beating heart of Punderneath It All, who started a weekly pun-off in Seattle, only to watch the movement bloom and spread to other cities around the globe. Whether youre lexically dextrous or not, this delightful doc explores why its harder to define pun than you think, the ethics of controversial comedy, and how language (and, yes, even puns) can be a tool for social change. Ultimately, Punderneath It All is a celebration of vital in-person community spaces, those seemingly vanishing spots in Seattle to convene, bond, and have a laugh.

Accesibilidad
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forums ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. All doors in Northwest Film Forum are non-motorized, and may require staff assistance to open. Our upstairs workshop room is not wheelchair accessible.
The majority of seats in our main cinema are 21 wide from armrest to armrest; some seats are 19 wide. We are working on creating the option of removable armrests!
We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter. Also available at the front desk is a Sensory Kit you can borrow, which includes a Communication Card, noise-reducing headphones, and fidget toys.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at suji@nwfilmforum.org. Our phone number (206-329-2629) is voicemail-only, but we check it often.
