Blow-Up

aka Blowup

Poster for Blow-Up

Antonioni’s camera never flinches. At love without meaning. At murder without guilt. At the dazzle and the madness of London today.

Film Synopsis

A London fashion photographer inadvertently captures a possible murder on film while shooting in a park. As he investigates the mysterious images, reality and illusion blur, leading him deeper into a web of uncertainty. Struggling to discern truth from perception, he faces the unsettling limits of his own understanding.
