The film clip here isn't a real person - she's a computer animation. Simply astounding.

Watching again, I think it may be *only* her face they rendered, so that her hair and hands are actually hers. Then, if her hair is blurry, it is not a matter of their rendering.

Her hands are relatively large and devoid of relative detail - you will normally see compression artifacts more around regions where there's lots of important and delicate detail over small areas.
