Festival FAQs


The 10th CUFF.Docs Documentary Film Festival is an in-cinema only festival, with all films playing at Globe Cinema (November 23-28, 2022). For the past two years, we have presented a mix of online and hybrid festivals, which was how we were able to keep our festival going during the pandemic. We know that many of you have become accustomed to being able to stream films online, and the flexibility that allowed. Following industry trends, and distributor requirements, film festivals are transitioning back to be exclusively in-cinema events. This year, we're pretty excited to be back in the cinema, bringing our audience and filmmakers together to celebrate watching movies on the big screen.

If you have any general questions about ticketing at the festival please contact boxoffice@calgaryundergroundfilm.org. For general inquiries, please contact cuff@calgaryundergroundfilm.org.

Do I need an account to claim tickets? 

Anyone who purchases a ticket to CUFF must create a Showpass account. If you've purchased a ticket to a CUFF event since 2019, you should have an account.

Where can I find a film's rating?

As a film festival, CUFF films are exempt from Alberta Film Classification. These films are not rated yet, and may not be appropriate for all audiences. Please be sure to read film synopses and do your own research, as many films that we show are not appropriate for youth.
