Film I Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait (2006)
“Sublime. The greatest film about football ever made” The Observer
This highly acclaimed film, half-way between a sports documentary and a conceptual art installation, consists of a full-length football game (Real Madrid vs Villareal, 23 April 2005) entirely filmed from the perspective of professional footballer Zinedine Zidane.
Video artists Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno, used 17 cameras to capture the action from field level to create one of the most intense and direct sports films of all time.
