My Way To Olympia 2013
Plot Synopsis
The story of someone who set out to overcome their fear of sport - and especially of those who pursue it. Niko von Glasow, "Germany's one and only short-armed director", travels around the world to meet athletes preparing for the 2012 Paralympics: one-armed table tennis player from Norway; boccia champion from Greece who is paralysed from the neck down; short-armed archer from the USA; one-legged swimmer from Germany and Rwanda's sitting volleyball team. Eager to learn, the director takes an upbeat and self-critical look at what pushes these athletes to their physical and mental limits and discovers how sport has given them the courage to face life.
