The IOC's official films project team has assembled 67 minutes of footage from the Antwerp Games, almost all of it produced by a Swedish film crew. Not surprisingly, there is an emphasis on Swedish athletes. We also see a large Swedish choir performing, although the coverage is, of course, silent. And we see Swedish system team gymnastics, which was an official event, although only three nations took part. The Swedish system consisted of calisthenic-type exercises.
