A film of the first dive to 1,000m in Antarctica won Best Micro Movie at the World Wildlife Day Film Showcase.
Unresolvable The public record could not settle it.
Factual: Statements about the present or the past, checked against the record: did they hold up?
What would count as true or false
True: World Wildlife Day Film Showcase (Jackson Wild/UN CITES) announcements show a film of the first 1,000m dive in Antarctica (e.g. OceanX/Alucia-linked) won the Best Micro Movie award by 3 March 2019. Mostly true: the film won but the award name differs slightly, or the dive was described slightly differently (e.g. first crewed dive to that depth). Mostly false: the film was only a finalist or nominee, or won a different category. False: official results show the film did not win at the showcase or was not entered.

Reasoning
E1 lists 'The Deepest Dive in Antarctica Reveals a Sea Floor Teeming With Life' (OceanX, BBC Earth) among the finalists of the 2019 Living Oceans showcase, and E2 shows the showcase had an Ocean Micro-Movie category, but neither item states which category the film was entered in. E3 and E5 confirm that winners were announced at UN Headquarters around 1 March 2019, but none of the evidence names the Micro-Movie winner. E4 names Sonic Sea as a winning film without naming its category or any Micro-Movie winner. The evidence does not show whether the OceanX film won or was only a finalist, so the claim cannot be settled.
