At the 1936 Olympics, against a backdrop of swastikas and goose-stepping storm troopers, and with what will become WWII simmering, an African American son of sharecroppers won a staggering four gold medals and single-handedly demonstrated that Hitler's myth of Aryan supremacy was a lie. This 2-hour documentary special draws on firsthand interviews, exhaustive research, and archival footage that transports us to Germany and tells the dramatic tale of Jesse Owens' triumph at "the Nazi Olympics."
Directed by Andre Gaines and narrated by Don Cheadle, the two-hour documentary will feature archival footage, animation and interviews with journalists, historians and Owens daughters as well as athletes including Carl Lewis, Noah Lyles, Erriyon Knighton, and Christian Coleman, among others.
