If you play a game, play it well. Because it might be real. And it might hurt.
Two players fight on a chess game. Tricked by their minds in a reality that is larger than just the board.
Reality shifts and becomes the game.


CHECK is a story about a confrontation. Two characters fight on different levels, to measure themselves.
The chess game became immediately a major component, and the idea to add the boxing came naturally, as I feel the two have a lot in common.
It's an extrapolation about strategy and confrontation. It was very important to me that there would be no dialogues, and that I would shoot in black and white. I wanted to balance the duality, the games, the colors.
I had now, two characters and two games, but only one reality.
