Break Point

Veronica Loop 21 June 2023, 3:54 am

Netflix’s Break Point is a superb documentary series created by Paul Martin and James Gay-Rees, which takes us into the world of professional tennis through its most promising aspirants.

The second part of this documentary series arrives in June, applying formulas seen in other sports documentaries like “Drive to Survive” and successfully bringing it to the world of tennis.

“Wyatt Earp and The Cowboy War” Docuseries on Netflix: A Fresh Perspective on the Wild West and the Iconic OK Corral Gunfight

The first part was a huge success, and we expect no less from this second installment, which features a few privileged tennis players such as Nick Kyrgios, Thanasi Kokkinakis, and Matteo Berrettini, putting the world of tennis in the palm of our hands.

This documentary aims to take us beyond a television broadcast and make us truly part of the frenetic world of professional sports through aspirants who aim to dethrone the three great legends who have reigned in the last decade.
The best part of the documentary is how it managed to get these tennis players to participate and introduce the camera into the depths of their ambitions and, above all, their enormous desire to conquer the four Grand Slams.

“Break Point” is a phenomenal documentary that allows us to get as close as possible to the world of professional tennis, enter the locker room, and delve into the psychology, life, and frenzy of a professional tennis player.

This original proposal from Netflix offers high-quality production and photography in sports documentaries, and “Break Point” is no exception. It is a high-quality documentary series that achieves its objective: to make the viewer vibrate and immerse themselves in the competitive world of today’s tennis through its new and promising stars willing to break the brutal tyranny of Federer, Williams, Nadal, or Djokovic.

Through four major tournaments (Australian Open, Indian Wells, Madrid Open, and the incomparable Roland Garros), five promising players will fight to win the coveted crown.

If you love tennis, it is impossible to miss, and if not, the documentary goes beyond the world of tennis and offers the opportunity to get closer to the world of athletes and walk alongside them through these five episodes in pursuit of the (almost) impossible dream of achieving that Break Point.

Episode List

Part 1

The Maverick

Nick Kyrgios, whose reputation as tennis’s “bad boy” threatens to overshadow his talent, fights to find joy on the court at the 2022 Australian Open.

Take the Crown

Novak Djokovic’s ban from the Australian Open leaves an opportunity for a newcomer to rise to the top. Can Italy’s Matteo Berrettini step up?

California Dreaming

The Indian Wells tournament means big money, big names — and for California native Taylor Fritz, a potentially career-changing match against Rafael Nadal.

Great Expectations

Spanish star Paula Badosa feels the pressure of entering the Madrid Open as a hometown favorite, while Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur looks to make history.

King of Clay

Two talented young players, Félix Auger-Aliassime of Montreal and Norway’s Casper Ruud, face reigning “king of clay” Rafael Nadal at the French Open.

Part 2

Belonging

Wimbledon is the cathedral of tennis, and with its all-white dress code and royal traditions, the oldest Grand Slam represents the pinnacle of the sport for fans and players alike. After his doubles win at the Australian Open, Nick Kyrgios enters the 2022 tournament ready to prove that he can finally reach his singles potential. On the women’s side, Ajla Tomljanovic needs to overcome her personal and professional heartbreaks to master her mental game once and for all. As they win their way through the early rounds, both Kyrgios and Tomljanovic will lean on their fathers for encouragement and support. But when one player challenges the tournament’s high standards of decorum, will it cost them everything?

Saints and Sinners

As Wimbledon 2022 rolls on, two unconventional players are making history on its pristine grass courts. Women’s No. 2 Ons Jabeur broke through with a life-changing win in Madrid earlier in the season; now, she’s carrying the hopes of the entire African continent as she pursues her first Grand Slam. Nick Kyrgios, meanwhile continues to play brilliantly through a cloud of scandal, and he’s learning to use his temper as a tool to throw opponents off their game. In the final, Jabeur’s finesse comes under attack from Elena Rybakina’s massive serve, while Kyrgios goes head to head with defending champion Novak Djokovic, a patient, methodical giant who’s unlikely to be perturbed by chaos.

Fairytale in New York

The streets of New York City are always buzzing for the last Grand Slam of the year. But the 2022 U.S. Open is more electric than usual: Serena Williams announced she would retire at the end of the tourney, and the media frenzy surrounding her is at a fever pitch. It’s a nightmare for Serena’s opponents, but for Ajla Tomljanovic, it’s a chance to prove she’s found the mental strength to play up to her potential. When the two women go head to head in a third round match, not only does Tomljanovic have to beat the G.O.A.T. to move on – she has to do it in front of 24,000 screaming fans rooting for her to fail.

Under Pressure

The young guns continue to shine at the U.S. Open, as women’s No. 1 Iga Swiatek, men’s No. 3 Carlos Alcaraz, and men’s No. 22 Frances Tiafoe reach the quarter finals. Swiatek has an incredible eight titles and 37 consecutive wins coming into this tournament, but the noise of New York City – and the Open’s raucous crowd – could throw her off her game. For Tiafoe, it’s the chance to achieve a lifelong dream that started on the courts of a Maryland tennis center, where his father, an immigrant from Sierra Leone, worked on the maintenance staff. He’s got a chance to become the first American man to win the Open trophy in almost 20 years, but can he make it past Rafael Nadal?

One Last Chance

The 2022 season draws to a close with the ATP/WTA Finals, in which the top eight men and women compete for a huge payday. Taylor Fritz gets a last minute call to join the men’s tournament in Turin after an injury to Carlos Alcaraz – but he’ll have to play back-to-back matches against Nadal and Djokovic to prove he belongs there. At the women’s tourney in Ft. Worth, Aryna Sabalenka is trying to end the hardest year of her career on a high note – but to reach the final, she’ll need to take down Iga Swiatek, the seemingly unstoppable No. 1. The odds are against her, and there’s only one thing Sabalenka knows for sure: when in trouble, hit harder.

“Break Point” (2023) Teil 2: Dokumentarserie über Tennis auf Netflix

Break Point

Veronica Loop 21 June 2023, 3:54 am

“Break Point” ist eine große Dokumentarserie von Paul Martin und James Gay-Rees, in der wir einen Einblick in die Welt des professionellen Tennissports bekommen und die sich aus den beliebtesten jungen Spielern zusammensetzt.

Nun beginnt der zweite Teil dieser Dokumentarserie, der andere Formen der Sportdokumentation vorstellt, wie zum Beispiel den im Tennis erfolgreichen “Drive to Survive”.

Der erste Teil war ein großer Erfolg und wir erwarten viel Erfolg von diesem zweiten Teil, der uns mit einigen privilegierten Tennisspielern wie Nick Kyrgios, Thanasi Kokkinakis oder Matteo Berrettini im Juni die Welt des Tennis in die Hände der Spieler bringen wird.

Diese Dokumentarserie versucht, uns die drei großen Legenden, die in den letzten zehn Jahren wiederbelebt wurden, zu zeigen, die uns einen Einblick in die Geschichte des Profisports geben wollen, indem sie uns das wahre Leben dieser drei großen Legenden zeigen.

Das Beste an der Dokumentarserie ist, dass es ihr gelungen ist, diese Tennisspieler für den Titel zu gewinnen und die Kamera auf ihre Ambitionen und vor allem auf ihre enorme Leistung, die vier Grand Slams zu gewinnen, zu richten.

Eine Serie, die zweifellos sehenswert ist.
“Break Point” ist eine sensationelle Dokumentarserie, mit der wir die Welt des Profitennis von ihrer besten Seite erleben können. Wir können in das Umfeld und so gut wie möglich in die Psychologie, das Leben und die Ethik eines professionellen Tennisspielers eintauchen.

Eine originelle Netflix-Produktion, die sich auf Fotografie und Produktionsqualität konzentriert und zu der auch “Break Point” gehört, mit der sie eine Dokumentarserie von höchster Qualität produziert, was ihr Ziel ist: Die Spieler zu zeigen und sie in der Welt des heutigen Tennissports durch ihre neuen und sehr unterschiedlichen Stile erleben zu lassen, die bereit sind, die brutale Tyrannei von Federer, Williams, Nadal oder Djokovic zu brechen.

Auf vier großen Turnieren (Australian Open, Indian Wells, Madrid Open und dem unvergleichlichen Roland Garros) werden fünf Turniere ausgetragen, um die besten Spieler zu ermitteln.

Wenn Sie Tennis spielen wollen, sollten Sie das auf keinen Fall verpassen. Wenn nicht, gibt uns die Dokumentarserie über die Welt des Tennis die Möglichkeit, die Welt des Sports zu genießen und, wie in einer Reality-Show durch diese fünf Episoden, diesen Bruchpunkt nach dem (oft) unvorstellbaren Trauma zu erreichen.

‘Break Point’ (2023) Parte 2. Documentario sul tennis su Netflix

Break Point

Veronica Loop 21 June 2023, 3:54 am

Break Point” è un’eccezionale serie di documentari creata da Paul Martin e James Gay-Rees in cui possiamo scoprire il mondo del tennis professionistico attraverso le aspirazioni dei suoi più promettenti futuri campioni.

Si tratta della seconda parte di questa serie di documentari che, utilizzando formule già viste in altri documentari sportivi come “Drive to Survive”, porta il pubblico nel mondo del tennis nel modo più efficace possibile.

La prima parte è stata un grande successo e non ci aspettiamo nulla di meno da questa seconda parte, che arriverà a giugno e ci porterà nel mondo del tennis attraverso alcuni dei tennisti più privilegiati come Nick Kyrgios, Thanasi Kokkinakis o Matteo Berrettini.

Un documentario che, attraverso le aspirazioni dei tennisti che vogliono dichiarare le tre grandi eredità che hanno regnato negli ultimi dieci anni, vuole portare il pubblico oltre la semplice trasmissione televisiva e farlo sentire veramente parte del frenetico mondo dello sport professionistico.

Il punto di forza del documentario è quello di coinvolgere i tennisti e di introdurre la telecamera nei loro obiettivi e, soprattutto, nel loro enorme desiderio di conquistare i 4 Grandi Slam.

Una serie che merita sicuramente di essere vista.

Break Point” è un documentario fenomenale che ci porta nel mondo del tennis professionistico nel modo più intimo possibile, ci porta negli spogliatoi e, per quanto possibile, ci fa entrare nella psicologia, nella vita e nella frenesia di un tennista professionista.

Una proposta originale di Netflix che, per quanto riguarda i documentari sportivi, offre qualità sia in termini di fotografia che di produzione. Non è da meno “Break Point”, che riesce a creare una serie documentaria di altissima qualità che raggiunge il suo obiettivo: far vibrare lo spettatore ed entrare nel mondo competitivo del tennis di oggi attraverso le sue nuove e promettenti stelle pronte a rompere la brutalità della tirannia di Federer, Williams, Nadal o Djokovic.
Attraverso quattro grandi tornei (Australian Open, Indian Wells, Madrid Open e l’incomparabile Roland Garros), cinque promettenti giocatori lotteranno per conquistare il tanto desiderato titolo.

Se amate il tennis, non potete perdervelo e, se non lo amate, il documentario va oltre il mondo del tennis e ci offre l’opportunità di entrare nel mondo degli atleti e di camminare al loro fianco e, quasi come in un reality show, accompagnarli in questi cinque episodi alla ricerca del sogno (quasi) impossibile di raggiungere il “Break Point”.

“Break Point” (2023) partea a doua: Un documentar despre tenis pe Netflix

Break Point

Veronica Loop 21 June 2023, 3:54 am

“Break Point” este un serial documentar excepțional creat de Paul Martin și James Gay-Rees, care ne poartă în lumea tenisului profesionist prin intermediul celor mai promițători aspiranți ai săi.

A sosit a doua parte a acestei serii de documentare, care aplică aceeași formulă de succes văzută în alte documentare sportive precum “Drive to Survive” și o adaptează la lumea tenisului.

Prima parte a fost un succes uriaș și nu ne așteptăm la mai puțin de la această a doua parte, care sosește în toiul lunii iunie și care prezintă câțiva tenismeni privilegiați, precum Nick Kyrgios, Thanasi Kokkinakis și Matteo Berrettini, punând lumea tenisului în palma noastră.

Acest documentar își propune să ne ducă dincolo de o simplă transmisiune televizată și să ne facă cu adevărat părtași la lumea frenetică a sportului profesionist prin intermediul aspiranților care își propun să îi detroneze pe cele trei mari legende care au domnit în ultimii zece ani.

Cel mai bun lucru la acest documentar este faptul că a reușit să-i facă pe acești tenismeni să participe și să introducă camera de filmat în profunzimea ambițiilor lor și, mai ales, în dorința lor enormă de a cuceri cele patru turnee de Grand Slam.
“Break Point” este un documentar fenomenal care ne aduce cât mai aproape de lumea tenisului profesionist, permițându-ne să intrăm în vestiar și, într-o oarecare măsură, să pătrundem în psihologia, viața și frenezia unui jucător profesionist de tenis.

Această propunere originală a Netflix, în materie de documentare sportive, oferă calitate în ceea ce privește fotografia și producția. “Break Point” nu face excepție, livrând o serie documentară de înaltă calitate care își atinge obiectivul: să facă spectatorul să vibreze și să-l introducă în lumea competitivă a tenisului modern prin intermediul noilor și promițătoarelor sale vedete gata să spargă tirania brutală a lui Federer, Williams, Nadal sau Djokovic.

Prin intermediul a patru turnee majore (Australian Open, Indian Wells, Madrid Open și incomparabilul Roland Garros), cinci jucători promițători vor lupta pentru a câștiga râvnitul trofeu.

Dacă iubiți tenisul, acest documentar este o vizionare obligatorie. Chiar dacă nu vă place, “Break Point” depășește lumea tenisului și ne oferă ocazia de a ne apropia de lumea sportivilor și de a merge alături de ei, aproape ca într-un reality show, prin aceste cinci episoade, în urmărirea visului (aproape) imposibil de a atinge acel Break Point.
