Sm: Please note that being shown at a film festival counts as a release according to IMDb. Since this film already participated in film festivals in 2019 and won awards, it should be listed with a release date no later than 2019 (see https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10341190/releaseinfo/ where it does not have any release dates listed yet). That would presumably make the year in parentheses after the title to be (2019).

This is stated in the IMDb submissions guide for Title Formats:

The year in ()'s should be the year of first public screening of the title. ... For movie titles this year is either the year of general release or of a festival presentation if earlier ....

I hope this helps.
