Netflix has recently acquired the UK distribution rights for ‘NFT:WTF?’—an enthralling documentary delving into the world of NFTs and their profound impact on art and culture.

Originally featured on HENI Talks—a platform offering concise art history films—NFT:WTF? spotlights key figures in the web3 domain, including renowned NFT artists Damien Hirst and Beeple, alongside hip-hop icon Snoop Dogg.

A highlight of the documentary is Hirst’s bold NFT project, ‘The Currency,’ where owners face a pivotal decision—retain the digital art NFT or exchange it for a physical canvas. Opting out of the tangible choice results in the original masterpiece being incinerated.

Moreover, the film explores the narratives behind seminal NFT projects like CryptoPunks and Bored Apes, offering candid conversations with avid digital asset collectors.

Directed by the acclaimed David Shulman, known for his BAFTA-winning work such as ‘Rages to the Riches,’ NFT:WTF? takes an investigative approach to unraveling the NFT phenomenon.

Produced by Battersea Entertainment and Atomized Studios under the leadership of Josh Berger, recognized for his collaboration with Jake Gyllenhaal on ‘The Covenant,’ the documentary secures its Netflix deal, signaling the streaming giant’s acknowledgment of NFTs’ growing importance in contemporary discourse.
