This refers to *Olympia*, Leni Riefenstahl's two-part German documentary film (released 1938) about the 1936 Summer Olympic Games in Berlin. It is celebrated for its groundbreaking cinematic techniques, but remains controversial due to its association with Nazi propaganda and its glorification of athletic ideals consistent with the regime's aesthetic.
