1. A method comprising
accessing, by a hardware processor, content data for a media asset;
determining, by the hardware processor, an event at a timestamp within the content data of the media asset, the event being relevant to a cultural attribute category;
identifying, by the hardware processor, a first geographical region corresponding to a culture of origin of the media asset and a second geographical region corresponding to a culture of destination of the media asset, the first geographical region being where content of the media asset was created, the second geographical region being where the media asset is targeted for release to an audience;
accessing, by the hardware processor, a first weight value of the cultural attribute category associated with the first geographical region;
accessing, by the hardware processor, a second weight value of the cultural attribute category associated with the second geographical region;
using machine learning algorithm to generate, by the hardware processor, a cultural distance score of the event based on the first weight value, the second weight value, and context data of the event; and
causing, by the hardware processor, display of the cultural distance score of the media asset on a user interface of a client device.
