If you loved El triunfo de la voluntad, try Olympia 1 - Festival de las Naciones
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Leni Riefenstahl, and they sit in Documentary territory. If that's the register that drew you to El triunfo de la voluntad, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Olympia 1 - Festival de las Naciones is
Triumph of the Will without Nazis. The first half of Riefenstahl's diptych covers the 1936 Berlin Olympics, from opening ceremonies to track-and-field events. A showcase for bodies in motion, if not exactly sportsmanship.
