SUBJECT TO REVIEW

USA 2019 , 37’

What happens when a new instant replay system is introduced in a sporting game? The use of Hawk-Eye in professional tennis allows the film director to observe that technology is not neutral (Federer himself, during the 2007 Wimbledon games, asked that HawkEye was turned off for his match with Nadal). Therefore, it implies deeper questions relative to the show business, justice, and human knowledge - always an imperfect one. A thorough, complex analysis of what isreal to the human eye and to the cameras. After all, in the 3rd century a rabbi already wrote in the Talmud, “We don’t see the things as they are; we see them as we are.”
