El Ouafi Boughera, The marathon runner of history
On August 5, 1928, after 2 hours and 32 minutes of racing, the 71st rooster wearing the bib entered the Olympic stadium in Amsterdam. Ahmed El Ouafi Bouguéra wins the gold medal and becomes the first Olympic champion from the African continent. He achieved his feat under the tricolor flag. The start of his real marathon is underway. The history of sport extends to the history of Algeria and France. This documentary retraces the different stages of the life of this great champion, not only the history of sport but also the great story. Archival photographs and interviews mingle with the painted paintings. The series thus once again gives voice to this forgotten hero, one of the great heroes of immigration who defended France for more than a century.

Reviews
Waste of time
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
