Stub article about a short film, with no actual notability claim besides existing and no actual evidence of reliable source coverage. As always, every film that exists is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because it has an IMDb page: the notability test for films requires evidence of critical or media attention and/or noteworthy awards, not just single-sourced verification of existence. Making a film notable enough for inclusion here requires saying more about it than just that it exists, and sourcing it to more than just IMDb. Bearcat (talk) 15:56, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I looked for sources for the film, as well as the director, and was completely unsuccessful on both counts. There does not appear to be any sources on this movie, aside from IMDB, which of course is not valid for establishing notability. Rorshacma (talk) 17:25, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unconcerned I created the stub rather than delete a dab entry, having established its authenticity. But I did find it available on a streaming video site with two genuine reviews "likes". Doug butler (talk) 22:01, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
