What Poor Filmmakers Did During the Pandemic? is one of those quirky little gems that feels both raw and real. Directed by an unknown filmmaker, it captures the spirit of creativity under duress. The pacing's a bit erratic, but that adds to its charm, reflecting the chaotic vibe of lockdown. Ridho, our solo protagonist, channels Kiarostami's 23 Frames with an interesting, albeit limited, approach and you can't help but root for him. The practical effects are minimal but effectively convey the constraints he’s working under. It's a dive into isolation, ambition, and the sometimes ridiculous lengths we go to for art. The atmosphere? A mix of desperation and humor that feels oddly relatable.
Captures the essence of DIY filmmakingUnique perspective on isolation and creativityInteresting nod to Abbas Kiarostami's work
