Mexican filmmaker Alberto Isaac managed to cash in on the excitement surrounding the 1968 Summer Olympic Games in Mexico City – the first to be staged in Latin America, the first to be held in a Spanish-speaking country and the first to be staged in a developing country – to turn the Games’ official film into an international hit. In the process, Isaac earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Documentary Feature.
