    Eight segments by an international array of directors. A terrorist attack by the Palestinian Black September Organization brutally overshadowed these Olympic Games and their remarkable athletic exploits. Eleven Israeli athletes and coaches and a West German police officer died at the hands of the group, five of whom were also killed. Only Schlesinger, in his segment concerning the marathon, touches on this outrage.

    Directed byMilos Forman, Kon Ichikawa, Claude Lelouch, Yuriy Ozerov, Arthur Penn, Michael Pfleghar, John Schle
    Written byDavid Hughes, Deliara Ozerowa, Shuntarô Tanikawa
