The Cinema-Going Pledge
We, the undersigned, pledge for the duration of the NZIFF to:
– Refrain from talking during a film.
– Never, ever, use my phone during a film.
– Make sensible, odour-free, eating choices during a film.
– Not make a distracting entrance if I arrive late to a film.
(Take the pledge here. Names are updated daily.)
If your fellow audience members fail to acknowledge our pledge, follow these NZ International Film Festival-sanctioned steps:
– First try a gentle ‘shhh’.
– No luck? Politely ask them to stop talking.
– If that doesn’t work, inform a NZIFF usher. They are there to ensure everyone has a great experience. Spending one minute doing this may save you from an hour of rage…
