This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of films). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: There is a corresponding Wikipedia page in German; however, that is also unsourced. I tried to find sources for this one outside of what is in the draft and unfortunately cannot locate anything reliable that would show how this meets WP:NFILM. There may be non-English references but I am unable to search for those. CNMall41 (talk) 19:58, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Pixelschatten is a 2011 German film that tells the story of a young blogger and his friends whose lives are derailed when he draws his followers into his narcissistic spiral. The film uses first-person point-of-view sequences, online-videos and user comments to visualize blog entries and user interactions. Pixelschatten was one of the first films to depict social media and decentralized virtual identities within a fictional setting.[1]
Plot
[edit]Two years after graduating from high school, small-town blogger and influencer Paul, known as Pixel, realizes that the public interest in his online-diary "Pixelschatten" has faded away. Seeking attention, he reveals more candid details about his friends Lutz and Dunia and about his girlfriend Suse in his blog entries. The three are so irritated that they further turn away from him. Paul then decides to cut off all ties and disappears without a trace. His last message is a blog entry with an intimate video of himself and Suse. Weeks later, Dunia, Lutz and Suse have grown apart with each one of them dealing with Paul's sudden disappearance in their own ways. One day, Dunia uses Paul's "Pixelschatten" login data to tease a sign of life out of him. The entry gets a lot of attention as many readers believe Paul has returned and is alive and well. Dunia persuades Lutz, and later Suse, to use Paul's identity to communicate their grief over his disappearance. With the new attention, and in disguise, they manage to complete Paul's dream and finally turn the blog into a popular community project. They organize a local festival named "Pixelfest" as a final measure to convince Paul to come back. When he does not show up, they publically reveal the truth about his unsolved disappearance and the last blog entries. With newly formed bonds, Lutz, Dunia and Suse part ways as Suse moves to Norway for a study abroad year.[2]
