From the BOTS home page:
BOTS is a finnish short film aimed for footbag freestyle players. It tells a story of a young cop, Mikko, who is still unsure if he made the right choice going to the police academy. Mikko gets a big case dealing with illegal betting business and soon he discovers that people are betting big money on underground footbag-battles. He has to go undercover.
Bringing out the Shred combines traditional storytelling and footbag videos in an unseen modern way. One of the main goals in this film is to capture the fast and unique movement of freestyle with a new concept of lighting, camera technigue and slow-motion. BOTS features the world-class elite of finnish footbag freestyle.
