24 de setembro de 1988. Estádio Olímpico de Seul, Coreia do Sul. Na pista, o favorito para vencer a prova final dos 100 metros rasos, o atleta americano Carl Lewis, de 27 anos, se concentra durante o alongamento. O público ansioso acompanha esse que é o evento mais aguardado das edições dos Jogos Olímpicos. Ben Johnson se tornaria o novo campeão olímpico e novo recordista mundial com 9'79, um tempo inimaginável para um corredor na época. Porém, o inimaginável também aconteceu fora das pistas. Ben Johnson foi pego no exame antidoping três dias depois e forçado a devolver a medalha de ouro olímpica, numa das maiores controvérsias da história do esporte.
