Ivo Špalj created sound for the film The Players in which we follow two tennis players whose match turns into a nuclear catastrophe. He had to create many specific shots, explosions and other sounds for the match. Among other things, the film is unique in that, at the time of its creation, it was an unusual co-production with British studio Halas & Batchelor. (Anifilm)

A surrealist animated plaything, where the mutual duel of two tennis players turns into an emotional battle fought with all conceivable means, even at the cost of total destruction. A famous film that opened the doors to the West for Petr Sís and contributed to his emigration. Overall impression: 90%. ()
