Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
Riefenstahl celebrates the human body by combining the poetry of bodies in motion at the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games with close-ups of athletes in the heat of competition. It includes Jesse Owen’s sprint races and Adolf Hitler looking on in amazement as Owens wins an unprecedented four Gold Medals.
