Nominations and awards received at festivals, in addition to the prestige for the producer and creators, also bring benefits in the form of greater interest in the audience, and hence the greater profits generated by films.

Festivals can be classified according to several criteria:

  • Requiring the player to submit to the festival or not (automatically submitted)
  • commercial and independent festivals
