Write a short summary of what happens in the film

The film is a humorous tale from the London streakers' community, where the prospect of getting up to 15 additional "stages" at the Wimbledon Tournament for their naked performances is met with enormous excitement. "That's a streakers' paradise", explains Mark Roberts – perhaps the world's most famous serial streaker, with over 500 events behind him worldwide: “All streakers want to streak Wimbledon – probably the finest tournament to streak in the world.” The film ends with Mark running naked on to the court with the tennis expression: LOVE 15, which also refers to the numbers of streams TV 2 PLAY covers during The Wimbledon Tournament.

Tell the jury anything relevant about the direction. Do not name the director.

During the preparations for the film shoot, our Director came across the infamous Mark Roberts – an English streaker who claims to have streaked 568 times during numerous international sport events. He thinks of himself as an entertainer and artist, and aims to give people a laugh in the half-time breaks. That perspective gave a new dimension to the film and the idea of using Mark Roberts in stead of an actor began. Also, Mark had documented many of his streaks, which he kindly would let us use. It was a game changer in crafting the film as we could use a real person and real video for a more authentic narrative. Mark Roberts was a natural acting talent and through strong direction, the choice of using him instead of an actor as our protagonist turned out to be the perfect choice.
