The result was keep. Convinced this short film meets WP:NFILM based on it's festival winnings.
Thanks everyone for participating. Unhappy with this decision? If one wishes to renominate this article with another policy-based rationale, they are able to do so. I will defer to other administrators to review it. I will not re-review my decision. Happy holidays. Missvain ( talk) 00:30, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

Article about a short film, not
properly referenced as passing
WP:NFILM. The notability claim on offer here is a bunch of film festival awards referenced to the festivals' own
self-published websites or press releases -- but when it comes to film awards, Wikipedia does not just indiscriminately accept every film festival on the planet as an instant notability freebie for a film, and instead ascribes notability only to film awards that can be shown to get media coverage: Oscars, BAFTAs, Cannes, Berlin, TIFF, that sort of thing. If you have to rely on the film festival's own self-published content to source an award win, because media don't consider the award significant enough to report on it as news, then that award is not notable enough to make its winners "inherently" notable for winning it.
The first three footnotes are actually third-party sources, but one is a WordPress blog and one isn't actually about this film, but is here simply to tangentially verify the existence of the social issue that this film is about, so neither of those are helping to establish the notability of this film either. One source, Südkurier (#3) is actually about this film, but one GNG-worthy source isn't enough all by itself.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt this film from having to be referenced much, much better than this.

Although the festivals may be small and are not considered „important enough“ by the common „news“ does not make them insignificant in the world of film festivals. Such as them being BAFTA and Oscars qualifying.
Ala Kachuu - Take and Run has been shown at the Oscar qualifying festivals 11th BronzeLens Film Festival, 45th Cleveland International Film Festival, 16th HollyShorts Film Festival and the 38th Flickers’ Rhode Island Film Festival. The film is now eligible to compete for the next Oscars season by its airing at the LA cinema Laemmle’s Noho 7.
The following third party articles have now been added:
