Summary

Featuring never-before-seen archival footage and new research, this documentary reveals how the modern Olympics were shaped by the collaboration of interests between Hitler and ambitious Olympic planners. The grand themes and controversial issues from the 1936 Berlin Games have continued to this day: monumentality, budget overruns, and collusion with authoritarian regimes, corruption, and sometimes even bribery.
