Reception and Q&A with Director and Producer, Jacqueline Joseph

A vivid exploration of what makes a champion athlete, featuring Martina Navratilova, Jack Nicklaus, Nadia Comaneci, Edwin Moses and Esther Vergeer.

What makes an athlete a multiple Olympic Gold Medalist, a Wimbledon champion or winner of The Masters? What gives these athletes an “edge"? Through candid interviews with tennis legend, Martina Navratilova, golf great Jack Nicklaus, Olympic gymnast Nadia Comaneci, track and field star Edwin Moses, and Dutch Paralympian Esther Vergeer, as well as archival footage of their most exciting moments at the Olympics, Wimbledon, the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open, Roland Garros and the Paralympics, the film explores why some athletes achieve greatness.
