The Spirit of Sailing

Jørgen Ekberg, Denmark, 1969

13 min.DK/DocumentaryPortrait films

Sports is not necessarily competition, nor show or excercising. The great talent may first and foremost be seen as an artist among other artists, having a genius for
expressing himself through his athletic abilities. This film shows Paul Elvstrøm sailing in three different types of boats while telling about his experiences on the sea.
