Does not pass WP:NFILM, all a search brought up was a single review listed on Rotten Tomatoes, which cannot even be accessed anymore. All other sources found were either about a 2018 documentary or a 2020 Australian novel. Devonian Wombat (talk) 02:54, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. To be frank, even though I created the article, I feel I have only half a dog in this fight, that's why I created it as a stub, hoping people with more knowledge of the movie business might help expand it. It doesn't help that I don't know a great deal about LGBTQ+ movies. I came across the movie on Showtime, where it features in the Pride collection. Googling it, I found little info, but thought this might be one of those movies that missed out on a lot of chances because of the Covid pandemic, and thought someone with more knowledge of movie and LGBTQ+ media might "rescue" the article. What persuaded me to watch it was that Tess Harper is in it. Guess I haven't made much of a case for notability here. == Peter NYC (talk) 03:47, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Is there a relevant LGBTQ+ Wiki project where there might be people with more knowledge? Sorry to sound like an idiot... == Peter NYC (talk) 04:07, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Peter NYC, WikiProject LGBT studies might be a good place to ask for help. Devonian Wombat (talk) 06:39, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Some automated process notified me -- I only just noticed -- that it won the Best Louisiana Feature Award at the 2019 New Orleans Film Festival. Should count for some notability. == Peter NYC (talk) 04:43, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tracked down the review: it's by Claudia Puig, reviewing it for NPR’s Film Week, and I linked to it. The film won an "Honourable Mention" jury award in the "Best LGBTQIA+ Feature" category at the 2020 Oxford Film Festival. == Peter NYC (talk) 01:09, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. I did a lot of researching but I have not found any coverage from reliable sources yet. It did win an award and the cast seems notable, but the article is lacking that coverage unfortunately. Anonymous 7481 (talk) 00:50, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
