🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a unique cinematic experiment, relying on the subjectivity of vision. Each director explores a micro-story, using editing and framing to craft a personal statement rather than a mere record.
Those who tire of standard sports coverage will find a portrait of the Olympics where the poetry of body and spirit takes precedence over the medal count. What lingers after viewing is a sense of intimacy with countless hidden human dramas. — MovieFinder Editorial
