considering there appears to be a complete lack of any kind of critical commentary of the subject I think it lacks ''significant coverage'' by |reliable sources. The |notability guideline for films specifically mentions that films are subject to the |general notability guideline ''"A topic is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."''. Accepted sources for establishing notability are listed as ''"published works such as books, television documentaries, full-length featured newspaper articles from large circulation newspapers, full-length magazine reviews"''. Sources specifically excluded are ''"Media reprints of press releases, trailers, and advertising for the film"'' and ''"Trivial coverage, such as newspaper listings of screening times and venues, "capsule reviews," plot summaries without critical commentary, or listings in comprehensive film guides such as "Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide," "Time Out Film Guide," or the Internet Movie Database"''. All the coverage presented (and I can't find any more) would appear to fall into the later category. Entries in directories or databases should not confer |notability, the Yellow Pages is a |notable directory but not every business in it is notable. As a side note whilst there may be some overlap the criteria for inclusion on IMDb are different from those on Wikipedia (see http://www.imdb.com/help/show_leaf?titleeligibility), for example ''"is listed in the catalog of an established video retailer (e.g., Amazon.com)"'' and ''"has been downloaded in 'large' numbers from some website(s)"'' probably wouldn't cut it here without independent coverage
