Worth a closer look
Tier C means thinner legitimacy/clout signals. Fine for some goals; verify venue, fees, and past editions yourself.
The International Road Movie Festival (IRMF) in Pilsen is a unique Central European festival devoted to the **road movie** genre, presenting several dozen films from around the world over four days. It is notable for championing stories of travel, adventure, cultural encounter, and personal transformation, while also including side events such as discussions, workshops, and music programming. Its significance in the festival circuit comes from its clear genre focus and its role in introducing international audiences to a distinctive, underrepresented film form.[1][2][4][6][15]
