We Are the Champions isn’t just a Queen track, it’s the sound of victory itself. This documentary traces how Freddie Mercury’s vision of a communal anthem leapt from News of the World into stadiums across the globe, becoming the ultimate soundtrack to triumph. With Brian May and Roger Taylor reflecting on its creation, and with decades of archive footage showing fans, athletes, and nations singing as one, the film makes a case for why this towering arena ballad still rules the winners’ podium.

A
Roughly chronological, from 3/96 to 11/96, with a coda in spring of 1997: inside compounds of Aum Shinrikyo, a Buddhist sect led by Shoko Asahara. (Members confessed to a murderous sarin attack in the Tokyo subway in 1995.) We see what they eat, where they sleep, and how they respond to media scrutiny, on-going trials, the shrinking of their fortunes, and the criticism of society. Central focus is placed on Hiroshi Araki, a young man who finds himself elevated to chief spokesman for Aum after its leaders are arrested. Araki faces extreme hostility from the Japanese public, who find it hard to believe that most followers of the cult had no idea of the attacks and even harder to understand why these followers remain devoted to the religion, if not the violence.
