I am quite certain the festival itself, along with the airing on the film, is supposed to conclude this arc.

How about we say that the "Mysterious Movie Production" arc is over, then?
I am not a soothsayer, and I don't happen to have any clairvoyance handy, but I'm pretty sure that the next chapter is
not going to be named "Mysterious Movie Production 8." If it is, then I will agree that the arc is not over with, otherwise, it will be the beginning of a new arc, or even just a stand-alone chapter.
For all we know, the next chapter might not even have anything to do with the movie or the cultural festival, considering how non-linear the time framing of some of the episodes has been. Maybe it'll be another beach episode, or perhaps a hot springs episode. Who knows?
Nonetheless, there's nothing to say that the mangaka can't (or even will) answer all those questions, or explain the black holes of logic in a new arc. Whatever some of those answers may be could be the inspiration, or instigation, for some new plot twist that takes us through the next arc, and that could be why we've been kept in the dark.
If the "Mysterious Movie Production" arc is ever produced as part of the anime series, I hope that we will not have to suffer through a whole episode of just the movie itself, like we had to do with that other anime.
