“Sprint: The World’s Fastest Humans” is a TV documentary sports series directed by Phil Turner.
Jamaica and the United States are, as of today, the countries boasting the finest sprinters in the world. As every track and field enthusiast knows, the Olympic Games, held every four years, represent the ultimate arena for sprinters globally.
This time around, the star athletes from Jamaica and the United States must rigorously prepare and undergo qualifying trials to secure their spots in the competition. Among these competitors, some prefer to stay under the radar, while others relish the spotlight and media attention. Nonetheless, each one of them has a singular goal: to clinch the gold medal at the grand event in Paris.
About the Documentary
The series unfolds over four riveting episodes that meticulously follow the journey of athletes training and competing for Paris 2024. The first episode focuses on American athletes and their selection trials, while the second shifts the spotlight to the Jamaican contenders.
Episodes three and four bring viewers to the heart of the action: the Olympic Games themselves, culminating in a gripping resolution and an unforgettable finale. “Sprint: The World’s Fastest Humans” provides an in-depth look not only at the races but also accompanies the athletes through their rigorous preparations and training sessions. This behind-the-scenes approach is masterfully executed by Netflix, thanks to the invaluable cooperation of the world’s fastest men and women.
With this second installment, the documentary series draws to a close, having taken us from the World Athletics Championships in Budapest all the way to the highly anticipated event of this summer in Paris.
An outstanding documentary for sports aficionados and, above all, for track and field enthusiasts.
Enjoy it.
