Article about a film, not properly referenced as passing WP:NFO. The only notability claim being made here is that it "received acclaim from audiences at film festivals", except that's not backed up with any sourcing, or any evidence of winning any audience-voted awards at any film festivals, so that isn't a notability freebie in and of itself. The only source here, further, is its IMDb entry, which is not a reliable or notability-supporting source -- and while it is listed in Gerald Pratley's A Century of Canadian Cinema, that's a book in which each film only has a very short blurb, so it isn't enough all by itself, and the only other source I can find anywhere at all is this (you need to scroll down about halfway, because it isn't the first topic on the page), which still doesn't really add up to enough. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the film from having to have more than just two fairly short blurbs worth of coverage. Bearcat (talk) 16:05, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
