Jaan Poldaas: New Work is a fascinating dive into the life of a Toronto artist who, despite being somewhat overlooked, has a unique vision. The documentary doesn't rush; it takes its time to peel back layers of his artistic process, merging contemplative scenes with moments of raw creativity. You feel the atmosphere shift as he comes out of retirement, balancing his past with this new endeavor. There’s a tangible sense of nostalgia, yet also a kind of urgency as he completes what he considers his most significant piece. The pacing allows for reflection, and the informal interviews make it feel personal. The film captures not just the art but the artist’s spirit in a way that feels genuine and unfiltered.
