2017 Winners & Shortlists

Brief Explanation

What starts out as a regular street cricket game in the old part of Lahore city, turns into a fantastic digital game. We open on a group of young Pakistani men playing cricket on the street, when they are joined by Shoaib Malik, ex-captain of the Pakistan Cricket Team, who himself grew up playing on the streets. Shoaib prompts his team to activate a digital form of the sport: Pinball cricket, which generates digital hotspots and projection mapping. The teams interact with and play with this new amalgamation of the real and the digital world, until Shoaib himself ends the game by achieving a seemingly impossible score.
