Zidane, a 21st Century Portrait
June 11 at 10:30am
Seventeen cameras, one footballer, ninety hypnotic minutes. This dual-screen installation turns a single 2005 match into an intimate portrait of Zinédine Zidane, following his every move even when the ball isn't near. The twentieth-anniversary presentation pairs the theatrical film with raw footage from one camera, the two streams occasionally syncing into a mesmerizing rhythm.
