MovieDocumentary
Edited from almost 100 km of film footage shot during the Games, this feature documentary is a breathtaking portrait of the 1976 Montreal Olympics.

"At 75, Ariane retraces the thread of her life. Through her story and thanks to a meticulous and subtle montage of thousands of pieces of film shot by amateurs between 1925 and 1980, this film weaves the entire history of women in Quebec, from the era of land clearing to modern feminism." -- Cinémathèque québécoise

MovieDocumentary
This short documentary revisits the 1976 Olympic Marathon. A modern-day addition to the Games, the marathon commemorates the soldier who ran cross-country, in 490 B.C., to announce the Greek victory at Marathon and then died. Here, great film footage of the 1976 Summer Olympics captures the physical demands of the race, while its emotional counterpart is related by Waldemar Cierpinski, the event’s 1976 gold medalist. This emotion-charged film proves that although the winner of the Decathlon is the best all-round athlete, the “toughest” is the winner of the Marathon
