The Duality of Sport

“I don’t care about success at this Olympic Games.”

Olympic Fencer Race Imboden gives rare honest insight into the dual mindset of an athlete before and after his historic medal at the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo. 

As we watched athletes speak up about mental health at the Tokyo games, Race and filmmaker Jeff Alper began to document what seemed like a breaking point months before the competition began.
