I don't do this often enough to have it to mind, so what I normally do is
record a Macro, convert it to VBS and then convert that to Python.

I'll leave the final step for you to complete yourself, but this will do
what you ask up to the point of copying the selected lines:

from win32com.client import Dispatch
xlApp = Dispatch("Excel.Application")
xlWbook = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(r"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\test.xls")
xlApp.Visible = 1
xlWorksheet = xlWbook.Worksheets(1)
xlWorksheet.Columns("A:V").Select() 
xlApp.Selection.AutoFilter( 2, "pass") # column number, filter criteria
xlApp.Selection.AutoFilter( 3, "pass")
xlApp.Selection.AutoFilter( 4, "pass")
xlApp.Selection.AutoFilter( 5, "pass")
#etc, etc - up to column 22 in this case
xlApp.Selection.Copy()
