The show is worth watching, just as a show, even if you disagree with the message. It’s unique in its presentation. The single cut style looks like it might hide some subtle cuts (I don’t think so), but it’s actually quite impressive. The topic is interesting and can spawn interesting conversations.
Every long oner has hidden cuts. These range from really simple, like something moving across the foreground to hide a wipe, to really difficult (expensive) like fully CG doubles to merge shots (probably too expensive for this TV show).
I would suspect that at least 80% of the time, when something (or more often someone) moves accross the whole frame in front of everything else, its obscuring a wipe to the next shot.
He could be lying, but the cinematographer for it says each episode was a single shot
I dont see why he’d say that if it wasnt as he’d look pretty stupid if some else came out and contradicted him.
