Story
A story of risk, adventure, and daring as four American bobsledders race for the gold in the most dangerous competition in Olympic history. In the 1930s, as the world hurtled toward war, speed was all the rage. Bobsledding, the fastest and most thrilling way to travel on land, had become a sensation. Exotic, exciting, and brutally dangerous, it was the must-see event of the 1932 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, the first Winter Games on American soil. Bobsledding required exceptional skill and extraordinary courage - qualities the American team had in abundance.

Story
Dreams Do Come True tells the inspirational story of one of Britain's golden girls from London 2012. Great Britain's finest woman rower had one final career target to achieve and, on 3 August 2012, on the water at Eton Dorney, she - and Anna Watkins - beat three other pairs to win the gold in the Women's Double Sculls at the London Olympics. After winning silver in 2000, 2004 and 2008, Katherine Grainger could finally call herself an Olympic champion.

Story
1992, giochi olimpici di Barcellona. Si corre la semifinale dei 400 metri piani maschili. Dereck Redmond, ha 26 anni, è il primatista britannico. E quell'attesa l'ha già vissuta un'altra volta, quattro anni prima, sulla pista di Seoul. Era pronto, si stava riscaldando quando il tendine di achille ha fatto crack. Allo stadio, tra le 56.000 persone che affollano lo stadio del Montjuic, c'è anche il padre. Che lo ha visto partire e risollevarsi, che lo ha accompagnato fin lì e che adesso lo sta guardando dalla tribuna.

Roger viene raccontato come l'anello di congiunzione tra un tennis antico e questo contemporaneo. Sulla carta Federer è favorito. Ma per Murray, oltre a giocare in casa, la finale per l'oro offre molte motivazioni, anche nascoste nel suo passato. E' ad un passo dalla vittoria. Gli basta un solo game per vincere la medaglia d'oro.

Story
Autobiography of Hall of Fame basketball star Clyde Drexler, one of basketball history's most dynamic players. Through his fifteen-year career as an NBA player, Clyde Drexler played with elegance and flair, leadership and poise, integrity and an ability to come through in the clutch. He led the Portland Trail Blazers to the NBA Finals twice and helped the Houston Rockets win the NBA championship in 1995. A ten-time All-Star, a member of the 1992 Olympic Dream Team, and now a member of basketball’s Hall of Fame, Drexler reached the top of his profession without revealing many of his inner thoughts on himself or the game.

Quella di Richard "Dick" Norris Williams potrebbe essere una storia notevole, ma per forza non più notevole di altre. Quella di un tennista, tra i migliori al principio del '900, quando il tennis era ancora un passatempo per le classi agiate. Un campione con dei successi e degli allori, ma in fondo niente altro da segnalare.

From her first strokes as a novice, Ginny Gilder found herself in a new world, training with Olympic rowers and participating in the famous Title IX naked protest, which helped define the movement for equality in college sports. Short, asthmatic, and stubborn, Gilder made the team against all odds and for the next 10 years devoted herself to answering a seemingly simple question: how badly do you want to go fast?

Story
Eager to celebrate its history, and display its athletic potential, the United States hosted the nation’s first Olympic games in 1904 St. Louis. But within a few years, the publication of Coubertin’s memoirs turned the praised Olympics into the failed Olympics. America’s First Olympics corrects common misconceptions that began with Coubertin’s memoirs, and presents a fresh view of the 1904 games, which featured first-time African American Olympians, an eccentric and controversial marathon, and documentation by pioneering photojournalist Jessie Tarbox Beals.

5 settembre 1972, ore 4:30, villaggio olimpico di Monaco di Baviera. Un commando palestinese di Settembre nero fa irruzione negli alloggi della squadra israeliana. Comincia così la pagina più tragica della storia delle Olimpiadi e si concluderà 20 ore dopo con 17 morti. In quella squadra c'è anche Shaul Ladany, marciatore che, bambino, fu deportato a Bergen-Belsen, il campo in cui morì Anna Frank. Per la seconda volta Ladany sopravvive alla Storia. La sua vita è stata una lunga sequenza di passi, quasi un Forrest Gump che ha attraversato il XX secolo.
