Collection in Focus | Zidane, a 21st century portrait — Guggenheim

This 2006 double-screen portrait film by Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno follows Real Madrid's Zinedine Zidane in real time across a single match — 17 cameras tracking one player for 90 minutes. It's less a sports film than a hypnotic meditation on focus, presence, and the poetry of elite athleticism. Shown as part of the Guggenheim's Collection in Focus series. Free with museum admission.
