Zidane, A 21st Century Portrait
[Zidane, un portrait du 21ème siècle], directed by Douglas Gordon, Philippe Parreno, France / Iceland 2006, 90'
- A blockbuster from the art world. This feature film of well-known artists is, simply, a record of a football match; but it is also an artistic super-production – high-quality cameras follow for 90 minutes only one player, Zinadina Zidan, one of the best players in history. The title reveals the creators’ great ambitions – to make Zizu a metaphorical figure of the beginning century. The successful deconstruction of football, combined with a Frenchman's charisma, watched unusually closely by spectators, helps the artists win, just like Real Madrid in the filmed match.
- Screening is part of Summer Cinema at the City Garden Jazdów
- Admission is free
