NHK Partners for Tokyo 2020 Paralympics Doc

NHK is collaborating with the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and the Tokyo Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games to produce the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics’ official documentary.

NHK will broadcast the documentary first, and then it will be released as the official Paralympics film both in Japan and abroad.

NHK commented: “NHK has since 1964 engaged in Paralympic broadcasts. The co-production film will capture the infinite human potential through athletes’ efforts to challenge the competition and will aim to promote the understandings, interests, and supports for the Paralympics to build a diverse and inclusive society.”

Andrew Parsons, president of IPC, added: “We are really looking forward to working with NHK and the Tokyo 2020 Organising Committee to produce the official film of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. NHK has a long and proud history of broadcasting the Paralympics and we are confident their in-depth knowledge and understanding of the Movement and the Games will ensure a fantastic documentary around the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics.”
