What's Up? takes an intriguing approach to visual perception and desire. The film delves into how we measure covetousness through the lens of an eye-mark recorder and a Titian painting as a central motif. It’s a curious blend of art and technology, and while the director remains unknown, the film has this almost experimental feel that challenges traditional narrative forms. The pacing is contemplative, allowing themes of longing and attention to unfold gradually, almost meditative in its atmosphere. There's something distinctive in its practical effects, using simple yet effective techniques to create a visual exploration of desire, making it a fascinating watch for anyone interested in the marriage of art and film.
What's Up? was released in a very niche market, making physical copies quite scarce. The film exists primarily in VHS format, with an elusive DVD release, which adds to its collector appeal. Interest among collectors is growing, particularly for those who appreciate avant-garde cinema and experimental storytelling. Its uniqueness and the mystery surrounding its production contribute to its status as a hidden gem.
