"Inside of me, my heart is always on fire…" An official trailer has debuted for a documentary titled simply Runner, about the world famous Olympian named Guor Marial. When he was a child, he fled from Sudan and escaped its oppression in America. Years later, ready to compete in running, he had to fight the IOC to be an independent runner for South Sudan but eventually was given the chance to compete in the marathon event in the 2012 Olympics. Runner depicts Marial's difficult & triumphant journey from refugee to world-renowned athlete, told in intimate interviews with gorgeously animated flashbacks of Guor's upbringing and culminating in a heart-wrenching reunion with his parents after a 20-year separation. An inspiring and remarkable story of one man against all odds, in the name of freedom, living his dream to compete in the Olympics. This also looks like it has some impressive animated segments that depict his childhood in Africa. ›››
