Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait was made by training 17 cameras, under the supervision of acclaimed cinematographer Darius Khondji, solely on footballer Zinédine Zidane over the course of a single match between Real Madrid and Villareal.
Zidane himself recounts, in voice-over, what he can and cannot remember from his matches.
