Rade and NFT: A A new way to watch films?
Instead of trading digital art, users can purchase and rent limited copies of films through Roadstead, which functions similarly to a digital video store.
Currently, the only Roadstead NFT film is Chime, which is available to rent by creating an account and clicking on the film’s rental page.
The rental process is simple: select a movie, opt for a one-day rental for $4.50 or a one-week rental for $10, and pay in yen.
Explore the Chime movie
In Chime, the audience follows Matsuoka, a former chef who reluctantly becomes a cooking teacher. As one of his students begins to exhibit violent behavior triggered by a mysterious sound, chaos erupts and quickly spreads.
Known for his talent for creating tension, Kiyoshi Kurosawa injects suspense into even ordinary scenes. The film’s brilliance shines through in its sound design: although the main “chime” remains inaudible, its eerie presence is felt through recurring musical cues, intensifying each noise.
As viewers delve into the unsettling world of Chime, they not only encounter Kurosawa’s iconic brand of horror, but also explore the new concept of NFT movie rentals, marking a significant evolution in film distribution.
