The Male Gaze: Strikers & Defenders (2020)
Work up a sweat from the soccer field to the locker room in these drama-fueled four films from Germany, France and the UK that explore how rivalry between teams can spill over into teacher-pupil relationships, high school crushes and brotherly compassion. The short films are: Islands [Inseln] (2018); Play It Like a Man [Un été viril] (2018); Colours (2015); Through the Fields [Passer les champs] (2015).
Directors: Laurent Lunetta, Fabien Cavacas, Peter Lee Scott, Camille Melvil, Ron Jäger.
