On Foot Through Gulag Land

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Article about a documentary film series, not reliably sourced as passing WP:NFILM. As usual, films aren't automatically notable enough for Wikipedia just because they exist, and must be shown to have some credible and properly sourced evidence of their significance -- but the only notability claim being made here is existence, the only "sourcing" being shown is the director's own self-published content on his own website and YouTube, and the article's been flagged for lacking sources since 2016 without ever having any sources added. As I can't read Hungarian, I'm perfectly willing to withdraw this if somebody who can read Hungarian can find the sourcing needed to salvage it, but it can't stick around another five years without any sourcing.

 * Comment. I'm not a Magyar, but I'm seeing at least a claim by the filmmaker that the film won some national awards, including from the Ministry of Defense. I'm seeing some evidence of awards being given as early as 2002 within Hungary, but I'm not competent enough to find digitized Hungarian print media that may have covered the film. Tehran Times says it's a longstanding international film festival, but I honestly don't have enough expertise in this area to say whether this satisfies WP:NFILM#3 or not. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 03:58, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
