Tokyo was the first Asian city to host the Olympic Games in 1964. Heading a team of more than six hundred people, Kon Ichikawa directed one of the most ambitious films ever made around sport. Ichikawa strayed too far, however, from the commissioned film that was intended to promote the country. Forced to shorten his film, it is the original version, meticulously restored by the International Olympic Committee, which is presented here by its craftsman, the film historian Peter Cowie.
