Success prediction.
PACCS-modelled festival acceptance probability · 22 anchor festivals, scaling to 200+ through PIFF 2026 partnerships
PACCS predicts festival acceptance using historical programming patterns, narrative signal, visual language, and audience modeling. Trained on 4,726+ analyzed films across 7 years of festival programming data.
A-tier festival profile.
In this worked example, PACCS positions the submission in the top 15% of films in its genre. Sundance and SXSW alignment reads high; arthouse circuit fit (Locarno, IDFA) reads strong; mainstream-distributor fit is moderate. Run on a real film, the breakdown below would update with that film's data.
