Sinopsis(1)
Weather permitting, it’s always busy around the popular ping-pong tables. People like to stop, chat, and either watch other players or play themselves. Their shared passion for the sport overcomes language barriers and social differences. The diverse community acts as a family, experiencing everyday events together as well as key milestones in life. But because some of its members have liberal views about drug and alcohol consumption, the city threatens to remove the tables. This film about togetherness raises questions as to whether public spaces are truly open to all without any differences. (One World)
(más)Reseñas (1)
At the school projection, this bored the kids a lot and many colleagues as well. But a few more perceptive individuals enjoyed it just like I did, meaning that skimming the surface accurately reflects the minds of individual actors when the director does not delve deep into any of them and in those ping-pong exchanges, he casually lets hidden traumas, pain, and hopes bubble up. According to the synopsis, I wanted to skip that hour, but in the end, I was surprised at how emotionally gripping it became.
