Playing men is a playful film about playing, about the beauty of the game and about men that play. In a time that may or may not be ours, men play, deadly seriously, yet with airy joy somewhere by the Mediterranean. Wrestling, rolling a cheese through village streets or the rapid-fire reciting of the right numbers are occupations of the highest importance. The director of the film films everything with serious lightness until he hits a creative block. In order to continue, he needs to rethink the rules of the game.
Matjaž Ivanišin was born in 1981 in Maribor. He studied film directing at the Slovene national film school (AGRFT) in Ljubljana. Since his graduation in 2007 he has been working as a freelance filmmaker (director & screenwriter). His films were screened in festivals around the world and received several awards. Karpotrotter, an experimental road-movie on the iconic Yugoslav black-wave director Karpo Godina, was premiered at Rotterdam and screened at Tribeca, among others.
