Plot
Eight acclaimed filmmakers bring their unique and differing perspectives to the 1972 Summer Olympic Games held in Munich.
Sinekatalog’s take
An omnibus documentary in which eight directors each take a personal angle on one Olympic Games. The mixture is uneven but fascinating, a good fit for sports fans who like unusual, artistic approaches.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
