| Summary |
Writer and director Faraut revisits the rich bounty of footage of the left-handed tennis star John McEnroe as he competes in the French Open at Paris's Roland Garros Stadium in 1984. Far from a traditional documentary, Faraut probes the archival film to unpack both McEnroe's attention to the sport and the footage itself, creating a lively and immersive look at a driven athlete, a study on the sport of tennis and the human body and movement, and finally how these all intersect with cinema itself. |
| Note |
Special features: In the realm of cinema: an interview with director Julien Faraut ; Facts about film (1948): a b&w archival film about celluloid, film projection, and more ; theatrical trailer. |
