If this file has resided on a WIndows share, Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, resulted from any third-party drive recovery tool, or is simply damaged in any other way, Pages will never open it again. Consider restoring an undamaged backup of this file from an earlier Time Machine backup using that namesake application in your /Applications folder.
