What Miro Saw is an understated gem that captures a profound sense of isolation and reflection. Set in the aftermath of 9/11, it presents this artist in his Upper Manhattan loft, staring out at the world turned upside down. The pacing is contemplative, almost meditative. Faxes of his drawings are sent to a friend in Dublin, creating this distant, yet intimate connection. The film's atmosphere is thick with tension and melancholy, a stark backdrop that amplifies Miro's internal struggles. The practical effects are minimal but effective, relying heavily on the performance of the lead, who embodies anguish and creativity with a raw, unfiltered authenticity. It's a unique portrayal of how art intersects with personal and global disaster.
