No significant coverage in reliable sources per WP:NFILM, just routine film listings and a passing mention in a news blog [1] were all I could find in a WP:BEFORE search. Wikishovel (talk) 10:41, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The article is referenced entirely to primary sources that are not support for notability, with no reliable source coverage in real media shown at all — and if anybody's got the skills to find the kind of sourcing needed to salvage a badly-sourced Canadian film, it would be me, but I can't find anything notability-building that's been overlooked either. Also, "Best Student Film at the Vegas Movie Awards" is not a notability-making award under WP:NFILM either — even if you're going for "won an award" as your film's notability claim, the award still has to be a notable award that gets media coverage, which that isn't. As near as I can tell, it appears to be one of those fly-by-night fake film festivals that doesn't really screen films for the general public at all, and instead exists as an "award mill" where any self-promoting wannabe can buy themselves an "award" so that they can talk up their film as an "award winner" — literally the only things I can find on the web that talk about the Vegas Film Awards at all are press releases self-published by the "winning" filmmakers, and that does not a notable award make.
  Note also Patrick Lualua Jr, another recent creation by the same editor about this film's director. Bearcat (talk) 19:58, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete: Per norm. Does not meet WP:NFILM. Only sources are IMDb which are not WP:RS. Jamiebuba (talk) 22:00, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Bearcat has said all that needs to be said, nothing to add, can't find anything other than listings either, definitely doesn't pass any notability criteria at all.Tehonk (talk) 08:47, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
