What Race Is About

Stephen Hopkins's 2016 film covers the athlete Jesse Owens at the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Whether to take part is itself an argument. Discrimination continues at home too. The film does not reduce the victory to a single race; the narrative sets segregation in America beside Berlin. Stephan James leads. It is based on real events. Its English title carries both meanings, the contest and the category. Who it's for: those who like sports biography. Who it's not for: viewers expecting complex political analysis; the film stays with the outlines.
