Shifting Courts

In the coastal village of Amed, Bali, life moves to a rhythm set by the sea and the volcano. However, an unexpected change is taking shape on the courts: the global rise of pickleball. "Shifting Courts" is an observational documentary short that explores how this sport has become a silent bridge between the local community and the outside world, capturing an intimate look at Balinese identity in the face of globalization and international tourism.
