His paranoia and psychological scars shape his everyday life, which is quite different from the game he loved. This film captures the essence of struggle, often interspersed with light-hearted moments that feel genuine rather than forced. The pacing is reflective, allowing viewers to absorb Damak's internal battles while also enjoying the camaraderie of the sport through his role as a water boy.
