RedirectWeak keep per below, or redirect and merge to Crest of the Royal Family; exists [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093633/]but appears to failand appears to satisfy WP:NF.

- Keep as 'the film has received a major award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking'. Article has now been amended to reflect this. --Wavehunter (talk) 01:25, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how major the Torino Film Festival is, it doesn't even have an article (Though maybe it should?). Thanks for improving the article though. Gigs (talk) 02:58, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- Agreed. I knew nothing of the Turin festival until I found its website yesterday. The TFF is now in its 27th year and the site gives some information on Daughter of the Nile [http://www.torinofilmfest.org/index.php?action=detail&id=3670 here]. The TFF is included in the [http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torino_Film_Festival Italian], [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torino_Film_Festival German] and [http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festival_du_film_de_Turin French] versions of Wikipedia. One for the translators, perhaps?! Wavehunter (talk) 15:58, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- Keep. The Torino Film Festival certainly seems to be important enough for winners there to be considered notable, with [http://news.google.co.uk/archivesearch?um=1&ned=uk&hl=en&num=100&q=%22Torino+Film+Festival%22&cf=all 1750 Google News hits] and [http://books.google.co.uk/books?um=1&ned=uk&hl=en&num=100&q=%22Torino%20Film%20Festival%22&cf=all&sa=N&tab=np 320 from Google Books], the fifth of which says that it's "dubbed second only to Venice on the crowded ltalian festival circuit". Phil Bridger (talk) 18:11, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep as the film is "historically notable" per (pick any one) "the film was given a commercial re-release, or screened in a festival, at least five years after initial release" [http://newyorkfilmfestival.net/archive/wrt/programs/10-99/hou/hou.htm New York Film Festival, 1999], the film has been "The film was featured as part of a documentary, program, or retrospective on the history of (Taiwanese) cinema"[http://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/washingtonpost/access/59713307.xml?dids=59713307:59713307&FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:FT&type=current&date=Sep+08%2C+2000&author=Michael+O'Sullivan%3B+Desson+Howe&pub=The+Washington+Post&desc=FILM+NOTES%3B+More+Films+at+Visions%3B+Taiwanese+Retrospective&pqatl=google Washington Post, 2000], and "was selected for preservation in a (Taiwanese) national archive" [http://ipac.hkfa.lcsd.gov.hk/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=123573W8925MM.9850&profile=hkfa&uri=full=3100024@!33690@!0&ri=1&aspect=advanced&menu=search&source=192.168.110.61@!horizon&ipp=20&staffonly=&&aspect=advanced&menu=search&ri=1#focus Hong Kong Film Archive].
