About
(Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1975, Italy, 117 min, in Italian with English Subtitles)
Co-presented with Scarecrow Video, where every ticket sold benefits the Sustain Our Scarecrow Fund, keeping the world’s largest physical media archive alive, so no romance, no comedy, not even New French Extremity, is lost to time.Each Trauma Bond screening features a live Drag pre-show from Seattle’s own Monday Mourning.
Pier Paolo Pasolini’s Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom remains one of cinema’s most notorious provocations, often cited as one of the most disturbing films of all time – a brutal descent into fascist excess where cruelty is ritualized and nothing is left sacred. Banned, censored, and whispered about for decades, this cult landmark transforms the Marquis de Sade’s tale into a shocking, unflinching, and relentlessly transgressive film that can’t be unseen.
Click for Accessibility Info
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum’s 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.
Made possible due to a grant from Seattle Office of Arts & Culture, in partnership with Sensory Access, our Sensory Access document presents a visual and descriptive walk-through of the NWFF space. View it in advance of attending an in-person event at bit.ly/nwffsocialnarrativepdf, in order to prepare yourself for the experience.
⚠️ COVID-19 Policies ⚠️
NWFF patrons will be strongly encouraged to wear masks that cover both nose and mouth while in the building. Disposable masks are available at the door for those who need them. Recent variants of COVID-19 readily infect and spread between individuals regardless of vaccination status.
