Experience the thrill of the games from every perspective imaginable as the glory of the story of the Summer and Winter Olympics comes to life through a comprehensive collection of historic clips and revealing interviews that show just how positive an effect a little friendly competition can have on international relations.

Interviews with the athletes themselves offer a revealing look at the emotion that goes into their training and performances, and a look at the myths and legends of the game shows just what it takes to earn the gold. A look at the amazing developments in the games throughout the years offers interviews with such popular figures as Dick Fosbury and Fanny Blankers-Koen, and a look at just where things could be headed in the future of the Olympics.
