I watched it, found it OKish, but no more than that tbh.

The Match inspired me to read intensively on the dynamic of Japanese, South Korean and Chinese collective wisdom in the 1990s, then fast forward to AlphaGo movie.
If you are a fan of C-biz, you’ll see in almost upper class families, ancient or modern time, a WeiQi board.
It is considered both a must have survival skill for life, and a show case of elite intelligence.

Ok I’m stupid, but I don’t see how it’s not the obvious atari.
Even if W tries to cut, B wins the liberty race.

Do you mean that black takes the white stone?
yes
It looks like a hard problem in that there’s probably going to be many answers and many pitfalls. In particular there’s going to be a lot of whole board judgement on the results.
I did find where this joseki seems to come from when you look back a little to when they set it up on the board. It’s a two space pincer to a 3-4 stone with a one space high approach.
A game where a similar joseki gets played, but it seems like if you answer 6 with 7 white 8 looks good. (from Ishida’s joseki dictionary vol 2)
I’ve found some old games that go into the puzzle variation. This is the move that brings you in the puzzle direction
and here’s some games with it
This one ^^ maybe has the variation you want @Gia
While another game I found goes into a different variation
To show the full joseki sequence ( apologies with the colours being flipped), but just grabbing it from a game in the same orientation ^^

This game from ~2010 with Mok Jinseok is more or less the solution given in the film by the fictional version of Lee Changho
The main differences are a couple of exchanges aren’t made. This would be the films version
and I think this monstrosity might be the sequence in full with numbers
or from the very beginning
Or the sensei’s library page might be easier to read

My co-creator @Feng_Feng loves loves loves the Match. Their deep thoughts on the Sensei and that 0,5 point margin victory resonates strongly with me, their Mentor who brought them to Go and OGS.
They now see clearly more than a dozen of Matches when her Mentor did lose (to the BOT)
