NFT:WTF?

Synopsis

Featuring interviews with the likes of Damien Hirst, the documentary explores how NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) changed lives, alongside the course of art and entertainment. From the worlds of CryptoPunks, Bored Ape Yacht Club and celebrity collectors, to current industry leaders and the community of collectors, the film talks exclusively to the key architects of the NFT movement. It also features its founders, including early adopters such as Snoop Dog and digital artists like Beeple (Mike Winkelmann), whose Everydays collection was bought by an NFT investor for $69 million.
