My advice is to go to the Festival's Sched Page for Saturday.
It looks like this (for the morning):

It's good and will help you plan. But it doesn't show the overlaps very well. Unfortunately they continued what they did last year - program films that end after the next films nearby begin.
My key recommendation for Saturday is Demimonde at 8:15pm at the Bear Tooth. Attila Szász's The Ambassador To Bern was the AIFF best feature in 2014. It was a fine movie. He has the same crew for this film about a famous Hungarian courtesan who was murdered and shocked the whole city. It's a period piece and the trailer is exquisite.
I had a skype interview with Szász in 2014 about The Ambassador To Bern. At the end we talked a little bit about the new production he was beginning - which turns out to be Demimonde. You can see it below.
But there are other films in competition showing today as well:
Happy Lucky Golden Tofu Dragon Panda Fun Fun Good Time Show is a documentary about a comedy act known as Slanty Eyed Mamas.
Dropka is doc about Tibetan nomads.
Both are discussed in the Docs in Competition post.
Planet Ottakring is an Austrian feature that I've discussed in the Features in Competition post. (Along with Demimonde).
There are also panels where you can participate in discussions with some of the filmmakers.
Lots of good stuff.
