The subject film falls short of WP:GNG, should redirect to the director, Segilola Ogidan. The cited sources are not helpful for establishing notability, as they are promotional pre-release coverage with no independent analysis of the film. Searching online, I was able to find reviews, but only one of them (a negative review in WhatKeptMeUp) appears to be potentially reliable ([1]); the others include a Medium blogpost ([2]), a two-person blog ([3]), an unbylined review from a 3-person blog ([4]), and a review on what appears to be a social media and PR site ([5], no masthead, no editorial policies, but there is a Log In button for their "African creatives community"). The film's Rotten Tomatoes entry lists no critics' reviews ([6]), and it seems somewhat telling that Pulse, which published most of the pre-release coverage, did not publish a review following release. signed, Rosguill talk 20:12, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Segilola Ogidan; but given the reviews (although some are on blogs, technically) and the minor award received ( https://www.pulse.ng/entertainment/movies/tainted-canvas-wins-first-award-amid-covid-19/t8vhnfg https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2021/05/15/segilola-ogidans-tainted-canvass/ really really not opposed to Keep; opposed to Deletion. -My, oh my!
