With exclusive interviews, rare footage and analytical insight, At the Heart of Gold: Inside the USA Gymnastics Scandal revealed the dangerous culture that allowed abuser Dr. Larry Nassar to operate for so long and the organizations that prioritized winning over the safety of young athletes. For more than two decades Nassar was the osteopathic physician for the U.S. Women’s Olympic Gymnastics team, and at Michigan State University. During that time, he sexually abused hundreds of female athletes. Based on years of research and featuring brave testimonials from the athletes at the center of the story, this powerful documentary presents the gymnastics scandal in a new light, investigating both the root causes and the disturbing details as well as questioning whether enough is being done to insure the safety of athletes in the future. It’s a powerful story, told for the first time with new information and unprecedented depth.
