Access at Our Venues

We aim to apply the principles of accessibility to our communication and the content we offer, as well as the physical infrastructure at our festival venues. All our festival venues are fitted with signs for easier orientation. We offer wheelchair-accessibility wherever possible, some screening halls feature an audio induction loop to aid viewers with hearing aids or cochlear implants, and guide dogs are welcome at all our venues

All the films screened during the festival have both Czech and English subtitles, while a selection of films also feature Czech descriptive subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing (SDH). Some films are offered with an audio description for visually impaired festivalgoers, and selected Q&As and other events are interpreted into Czech Sign Language. We also offer Relaxed Screenings (in Czech), which are designed specifically to serve people with intellectual disabilities, concentration difficulties, or epilepsy..

 

Access on Our Website

We are working with the organization Sjednocená organizace nevidomých a slabozrakých and Deaf Friendly to make the site accessible.

We are constantly improving the accessibility of our website. If you have any suggestion, observation or problem regarding the website, please contact us: marcela.vorlickova@jedensvet.cz
