Single DVD

In the 1970s, female East German athletes came from nowhere to dominate international sport. Behind their success lay a secret, state-sponsored doping program that distributed untested steroids to athletes as young as 12. Many of these girls had no knowledge that they were being doped, and now, their damaged bodies and psyches deal with the cruelty of a government that pursued international glory at the expense of its most acclaimed citizens.

Shocking!

By Jaya the Forerunner

from New York, NY

Comments about PBS Secrets of the Dead: Doping for Gold DVD:

I was shocked to see this film that emphasized the truth about glory to 'gold' ignoring the importance of their own citizens. It is an effective who search for drugs that might give temporary glory ignoring one's health. The truth behind this film is: 'all that glitters is not gold'. It is a must for anyone who think of drugs in their life.

Comments about PBS Secrets of the Dead: Doping for Gold DVD:

I have never watched a show from beginning to end that I couldn't wait to share with others. This episode of Secrets of the Dead blew me away! It was as if I was learning about a part of history that was never meant to be known.
