If you're a lucky holder of a TIFF press & industry pass, here's an insider's tip sheet on how to maximize your doc experience at the festival. Make sure to double check times and venues ahead of time for last minute changes (or in case I screwed up).

Most of the screenings below are marked P&I and require a press or industry pass to attend. Screenings marked "public" require a ticket. Check with press or industry office on how to obtain. Doc Conference can be accessed with a press or industry badge; Doc Roundtables are for industry only. Events at Yonge Dundas Square are free and open to everyone.

(Pictured: Jonathan Demme who will be appearing at Doc Conference on Sept 13 and for NEIL YOUNG TRUNK SHOW on Sept 14).
