Manipulation Games was born from an observation: filmed mentalism loses what makes it powerful live, the tension. A trick fixed in the edit impresses no one. A device where the opponent can genuinely win does.
Hence the rules of the series: real stakes (€100,000 in episode 1), participants who are not acting, and an aesthetic crafted like fiction, because the form is part of the trap.
Two episodes are online, the third is being written. Entresonge exists in part to give this series the means of a real production.
