More than just Games? Torch relay launches build-up to Paris 2024 Olympics
Edité par France 24 - 2024
What are those values? Does it resonate, for instance, when the leader of the last host nation China and the next host nation France call for an Olympic truce during the Games?
What does a global spectacle like this one mean post-pandemic and in the midst of so many conflicts and fractures across the planet? To what extent will Paris 2024 mirror the triumphs and challenges of our present day?
Produced by Alessandro Xenos, Rebecca Gnignati and Juliette Brown.
