In her new documentary, Waad Al-Kateab (director of the Oscar nominated For Sama) shows us the dramatic challenges faced by refugee athletes who competed for a place in the 2020 Olympic Games. Narrated in first person and often asking herself difficult questions, Al-Kateab listens to the athletes who have seen their dreams vanish and accompanies them through their suffering.
This is one bizzare film. The director appeared shortly at the beginning and then disappeared... not much narrative arc per se despite that all were preparing to compete at international games.

76$ 第十七屆慈善難民電影節 BC 港譯：敢夢人生 Olympics refugee team的選拔組成過程、東京奧運停擺一年對運動員心理精神影響、refugee對國族的自我認同，記錄本身有意義但連貫性以及敘事就是充滿怪異以及重拿輕放之平頓感，交給誰拍都比隨手交功課的效果更好，這種為了振奮人心而拍的documentary難道不應該拍得更有張力嗎⋯⋯

有一种给谁access都能拍出这样甚至可能更好的纪录片的感觉，最前面导演那段有点怪怪的……不如单独拿来做trailer。 第一个参加奥林匹克的女运动员逃出了伊朗，一个在被宣布录取时心里想着的却是没录取的社工，还有一个用实际行动回馈社区的护士，都给了我很大触动。难民从原籍地徒步穿越边境的故事听无数人讲述过但每一次听依然很难受。批判性和深度限于导演本身的水平有些不够，但还是很有意义的记录……疫情背景... 有一种给谁access都能拍出这样甚至可能更好的纪录片的感觉，最前面导演那段有点怪怪的……不如单独拿来做trailer。 第一个参加奥林匹克的女运动员逃出了伊朗，一个在被宣布录取时心里想着的却是没录取的社工，还有一个用实际行动回馈社区的护士，都给了我很大触动。难民从原籍地徒步穿越边境的故事听无数人讲述过但每一次听依然很难受。批判性和深度限于导演本身的水平有些不够，但还是很有意义的记录……疫情背景下的东京奥运会。 (展开)

导演的介入方式有点奇怪，其实介入并不是个问题，中间伊朗皮划艇选手崩溃的时候，导演在镜头外说的话，太打动人了，但开头结尾的自我表达和其他内容就很不连贯。无论如何，还是会强烈推荐这部片子，不同原因成为难民的人们，为了不同动机站在赛场上，它不断地理解他们的动机、而不仅仅是讲述他们的苦难，也许这就是身为难民的导演才会有的视角吧，不是同情弱者，而是寻找活下去的力量。
