UCLABuncheCenter_UNSTOPPABLE

Thanks to Focus Features for inviting the Bunche Center community to a screening of the film, Race, about Jesse Owens.

“The film is based on the incredible true story of Jesse Owens, the legendary athletic superstar whose quest to become the greatest track and field athlete in history thrusts him onto the world stage of the 1936 Olympics, where he faces off against Adolf Hitler’s vision of Aryan supremacy. Race is an enthralling film about courage, determination, tolerance, and friendship, and an inspiring drama about one man’s fight to become an Olympic legend.”                                                                                                                    –Moviefone
