Role |

Louis Selwyn plays a subtly nuance
role as Max, the club PR executive. He’s part confidante,
part inquisitor. He’s in league with a blustering colleague.
Max dissects the referee’s pompous self-confidence and
reduces him to a mere mortal, racked by uncertainty. Did he make
the wrong decision? Should he fudge his 'Match Report'? |

A man sits at
his computer and logs onto the interactive game "Caught Looking." He
watches as he guides his virtual self through passages, in
black and white. He considers but passes on opportunities with
rough trade, a teen boy, a threesome, sex in a public toilet,
and the kitsch of retro 50's muscle mystic in the Grotto of
Tiberius. He sends his virtual self back to a pair of sailors,
whom he films in 8mm. Then he meets a young man, a Tunisian
named Karim. The man at the computer screen is interested.
His ironic and self-mocking commentary ends; his tone changes.
What will happen with Karim? Has our virtual voyeur been caught
looking?
