"1924, das Jahr der Olympischen Spiele in Paris. Zwei Engländer, Harold Abrahams und Eric Lidell, bereiten sich auf den Wettkampf vor. Beide wollen nur eines: gewinnen. Aber nicht nationaler Stolz oder Geld sind die Motive, für die sie sich bis an die Grenze ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit quälen. Beide, in England gedemütigte Aussenseiter, wollen beweisen, dass nur Überzeugung und individuelles Ehrgeiz den Weg zum Sieg und persönlichen Ruhm ebnen können. (Quelle: Umschlag)."

Despite winning best picture at the 1981 Oscars, the film has dated badly and has been described by one critic as 'an overblown piece of self-congratulatory emotional manipulation perfectly suited for Thatcherite liberals.'

"Hugh Hudson directs this nostalgic tribute to Cambridge University athletes Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell, recounting the events of the 1924 Olympics. Abrahams (Ben Cross) is a Jew who experiences racial prejudice at Cambridge, while Liddell (Ian Charleson) is a Scot who runs for the glory of God. The two become rivals on the track, and both are chosen to represent Britain at the Paris Olympics. However, a problem arises when Lidell learns that he is expected to compete on the Sabbath; something that goes directly against his."
