Moses - 13 Steps

Moses - 13 Steps tells the life story of one of the greatest track and field athletes of all times. Edwin Moses grows up in a segregated America. As an African-American athlete he overcomes obstacles life throws at him. Without a coach and without support he teaches himself the toughest discipline in track and field, the 400-meter hurdles -- depicted as "maneater" by athletes and runners alike -- and creates a historic winning streak that leaves his competitors, fans and journalists puzzled. 9 years, 9 months, and 9 days. Sporting success is one part of his story. The other is Edwin Moses' fight against inequality, injustice, and doping, for equal rights and equal treatment of people regardless of skin color and gender, and for adequate payment of athletes.
