Conquering Time - Ágnes Keleti

Movies
A documentary. "Conquering time" is an intimate portrait of Agnes Keleti, the oldest living Olympic Champion, who made sport history of the 20st century winning 10 Olympic medals. She was born into a Jewish family in 1921, in Budapest. Her successful life is inseparable from the historical events she has lived through war, hiding, loss of family members, emigration, and statelessness. Despite of the indescribable physical and mental suffering caused by history nothing could tear her away from gymnastics. Agnes Keleti has conquered time more than once, proving that we must not conform others, but be faithful to our own principles.
