Synopsis

Beginning at the 1936 Berlin Olympics and ending at the 1972 Munich Olympics, The Gold is the epic story of Joseph Cohen’s pursuit of “the gold”. Joseph came up from the streets a serious young man and talented boxer. Along with his Olympic dream, he wants nothing more than to build a life and a family with his beloved Sarah. The Nazi regime destroys his dreams step by step leaving Joseph with nothing. Along with other Jewish refugees, Joseph makes his way to Palestine. Believing that peace is as important as security, Joseph dedicates his life to building the State of Israel. He returns to boxing and to Germany to coach the Israeli team at the Munich Olympics. The Gold is a celebration of the enduring spirit of a purposeful life, honoring courage hope, and a stand against hatred.
