Delete. WP:BLP, based entirely on primary sources with no evidence of reliable source coverage shown at all, of a film director with no particularly strong claim to passing WP:CREATIVE. The Cannes Young Director Award is not, as one might think at first, connected to the Cannes Film Festival, but to the separate Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity -- so it's an award that could be enough to get a Wikipedia article if the sourcing were solid enough to pass WP:GNG, but not one that confers an automatic WP:CREATIVE pass all by itself. As always, a film director is not automatically entitled to an article just because his own self-published primary source presence on the web technically verifies his existence -- it takes RS coverage verifying a claim that would pass CREATIVE for an article to become earned, but there's just nothing here to satisfy either part of that equation.
