1968 Sport & Revolution
1968 SPORT & REVOLUTION by Emanuela Audisio and Matteo Patrono

1968 is the year sport made its revolutionary mark, encapsulated in one of the most famous pictures of the 20th Century – Tommie Smith and John Carlos standing on the Olympic podium after the men’s 200 meter sprint, listening to the American national anthem with their medals round their necks: heads bent, fists clenched, black gloves.

 

Outside the track, the rest of the world: the May 68 protests in France, Vietnam, the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy.

 

Half a century later this documentary reconstructs those revolutionary games and tells the story about how they changed political awareness towards sport, as well as its technical and technological development.
