Fall festivals will claim a comeback. Watch the dates.

Telluride, Venice, Toronto, then the New York chorus. Every fall is sold as the season adult movies return. Some of those claims will be true. Most will be a window dressed as a movement.

What we will actually track: which titles got a room after the festival, which ones went straight to an app, which ones were treated as events. You do not need a dispatch from a party. You need to know whether you can still see the thing on a Friday.
