World at Stake

Total Refusal (AT)

A golfer fails to strike, a soccer team plays against itself, and a rally co-driver loses direction. World at Stake unfolds on a field where movement fades and action stalls.
At its center: an audience unable to act, that remains present, yet unresponsive.
Shot in sports video games, the film World at Stake turns the ordering principles of victory and defeat upside down and negotiates social roles between individual sovereignty and collective passivity. In the face of catastrophe, a sense of political powerlessness remains: collective, persistent, and difficult to name.
Nothing less than the world is at stake.
