Ball

Synopsis

BALL is an investigative and humorous film about the supporting roles of football. What happens when you turn the camera beyond the pitch? We get caught up in rituals among judges and linemen, follow the zealous accuracy of the material and that of the photographers looking for the perfect image. We study the audience
up close, big and small emotions build a mood at least as exciting as what happens on the pitch.
