I'm bringing this to deletion again because notability standards for films have become far more strict since 2009. Ultimately the film received some light coverage in Polish language newspapers, but that seems like that was about it- it never seems to have gained any reviews, awards, or the type of thing that Wikipedia now requires for notability.

It should be noted that the director's page has been repeatedly deleted for a lack of notability, including at a 2009 AfD. My opinion on his notability is mixed, but I don't know that this specific film warrants an article. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 10:48, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per being a suitable stub and just meeting the criteria required by WP:NF. Notable to and in Poland through Polish language sources (see WP:NONENG) is just fine with en.Wikipedia. [1][2][3] That the director's article was deleted is immaterial, as this deletion discussion is not about him, it's about a film. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 20:21, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

My problem is that this is some insanely light coverage and this seems to be the extent of what this film received. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 03:23, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Also screened on television,[4] and may remain a stub for a while, as this is almost as difficult as finding coverage for Indian films of the same period. But it does appear to have received a Gdynia Golden Lion nomination in 2001 as 'Best Film'. With that, I would prefer input from Polish Wikipedians about non-English coverage.

If they can find more evidence than was brought up at the prior AfD, I'm not opposed to withdrawing the nomination. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 03:37, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep ; looks updated after the afd. Staszek Lem (talk) 23:36, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It was, thanks. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 06:04, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
