Nine-Plus

About This Movie

Nine-Plus is one of those oddities from the early '80s that seems to dance just outside the spotlight. The tone is a strange mix, leaning towards the surreal while exploring relationships in an oddly fragmented way. The pacing can feel uneven, which adds to its charm, as it meanders through various vignettes rather than sticking to a straightforward narrative. The performances have a certain rawness that feels genuine, possibly due to the unknown director's hand. Practical effects are minimal but serve their purpose effectively, giving the film a unique texture. It’s not a movie you see referenced often, so it has that hidden gem vibe that collectors often appreciate.

Nine-Plus is somewhat elusive in terms of availability, with few copies surfacing over the years. Most collectors seem to have come across it in obscure film festivals or through niche distributors. Its rarity is a draw for those interested in early '80s cinema that doesn’t fit neatly into genres or trends. Many are intrigued by its peculiar vibe, making it a topic of discussion among boutique label enthusiasts.
