In 1936, Adolf Hitler attempted to make the Olympic Games in Berlin, Germany, a showcase of Nazi superiority with a new stadium and the first television broadcast of the Games. He didn't account for African American sprinter and long jumper James Cleveland "Jesse" Owens, who smashed records throughout his track and field career.

Story1
Jesse Owens’ mother frequently told him, “Put your best foot forward.” So Jesse followed her advice, worked hard, and made his dreams come true as one of the greatest Olympic champions of all time. But it wasn’t easy, as Jesse had to overcome many obstacles. Even though World War II hadn’t started yet, Adolf Hitler controlled Germany during the 1936 Olympics. He wanted to prove during the games that Germans were a superior “race” to other people of the world. Little did he know that a black American would smash those claims.

È il 22 luglio 1945. Siamo in Nord Dakota, ed è in corso una partita di baseball. Il pubblico è composto da bianchi. Nell'intervallo un corridore di colore sfida prima i più veloci tra i giocatori delle due squadre, poi addirittura un cavallo da corsa. Fa caldo, ma Jesse, trentatrè anni e un fisico invidiabile, sembra pronto a ripetere il solito spettacolo: l'uomo che corre più veloce del cavallo.

Quattro medaglie d'oro sono quattro medaglie d'oro. Ma quattro medaglie d'oro vinte da un nero dell'Alabama in faccia a Hitler sono un'altra cosa. Il granello che inceppa la macchina di quelle celebrazioni del nazional-socialismo che furono i giochi di Berlino del '36. Lui. James Cleveland Owens, detto Jesse. Il figlio del vento e di un povero agricoltore emigrato in Ohio per provare a sfamare lui e i suoi nove fratelli.
