SFDFF On the Road
“SFDFF On The Road” is San Francisco Dance Film Festival’s Touring Program. As part of our ongoing outreach efforts to bring dance to a wider audience, DANCE FILM SF is offering the rental of one of our annual highlight reels of curated shorts from previous years’ festival programming. These rentals are available as streaming, limited-use content and are intended for educational use by libraries and nonprofit cultural institutions or for small or new film festivals (worldwide) that do not currently have the resources to curate their own programming. By special request, we may offer multiple viewings for approved educational institutions that will assign controlled viewings of a package as part of their syllabus coursework. These touring packages are NOT FOR COMMERCIAL SALE.
The rental package fee includes the permission to screen a highlight reel of choice, PLUS a print-ready PDF program for self-printing and distributing to your patrons. We’ll also include promotional film stills. CLICK HERE to request permission for the rental of one of our Touring Packages.
