Kompletný popis

1880s. When it got too cold outside to play lawn tennis, the British upper class brought the game inside, and Table Tennis was born. It was simple: all you needed was a table, a paddle, and a little ball. But in the years that followed, what started as a simple English game spiralled into a global phenomenon…

Ping explores the seemingly innocent game of Ping Pong, where antisemitism and communism were intertwined from its beginnings in the 1880s to the 1970s when the U.S. opened diplomatic relations with China. Ping is a fictionalised account of this time and reveals the politics that ensued and the devastating fallout that followed.
