ADIEU, ZIZOU
ADIEU, ZIZOU
"Zidane, A Portrait of the 21st Century" by Philippe Parreno and Douglas Gordon was presented during the last Festival of Cannes out of competition.
This is a portrait on film, in action and in real time, of one of the greatest players in the history of soccer, Zinédine Zidane. It plunges the audience into a soccer match, sharing with them the sensations and psychology of an athlete. Seventeen synchronised cameras, combining HD with 35mm were used by directors Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno to meet this technical and artistic challenge, shot all at once on April 23, 2005 at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium."The initial idea was to make a film which would follow just one character as he journeys through a story", explains Philippe Parreno. "And then the idea came to film just a single player during an entire match. A match lasts the same time as a film. We're both soccer fans. The first and only player we immediately thought of was Zidane."
