From my research, this is a non-existent term, claimed to be a genre of Italian film. No sources provided, I was unable to find an external definition for the term nor any films classified as such either on Google searches, GNews, IMDb or English and Italian Wikipedias.

  • Delete As of now, it apparently is a tag in an Italian movie database. Google (Calligraphism -font) doesn't turn up anything useful, and the article itself doesn't have any references. WP:V and WP:N apply. --Pgallert (talk) 10:01, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
  • Delete as neoligism. Searches for "Calligraphism" and "Calligrafi films" return wiki-mirrors. The article's first sentence attempts to define Calligraphism, as "Calligrafi films are novel adaptations" and the rest of the unsourced article uses OR to further define the term by describing a perhaps representative film. While [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&ei=WgCpS_OcBpLatgOUpKB9&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&ved=0CA0QBSgA&q=%22Calligraphy+films%22&spell=1 "Calligraphy films"] are a phenomena and phrase with some usage within filmmaking, the specific word "Calligraphism" is not.
