- Comment: Right now, all the sourcing is from primary sources. Has won some minor film awards, and the Emmy nomination is a regional one, which doesn't qualify as a major award. What you need are at least 3 references which go in-depth about the film, from independent, reliable sources. If you add them and want me to take another look, please ping me.
