The incredible true story of Olympic legend Jesse Owens is vividly brought to life in Race. In his epic quest to be the greatest athlete in history, Owens chooses to compete in the 1936 Berlin Olympics, where he must overcome not only elite competition, but also the brutal racial climate of Adolf Hitler's Germany. Race is a film about courage, determination, tolerance, friendship and trust that critics are calling Movie Magic.

Race Reviews

“This is a very powerful film with excellent performances by Stephan James and Jason Sudeikis. Director Stephen Hopkins maintains a good pace, despite having a lot of characters and a complicated story to deal with.” – Laramie Movie Scope

""Race" reminds us that long before television elevated black sports heroes into gods, there were athletes like Jesse Owens who paved the way." – New York Times

“The script and direction of "Race” are both workmanlike and serve the film well, helping us to see Owens and Snyder as ordinary people with extraordinary gifts." – Washington Post
