Le film Olympia 52 peut être considéré comme un documentaire. il s'agit d'une commande de la Direction Générale de la Jeunesse et des Sports. Le film de Chris Marker s'attache à montrer ce que le public présent dans les tribunes peut voir du déroulement des épreuves olympiques. On y retrouve donc les images des compétitions mais aussi des scènes de préparation des athlètes. Cela donne un rythme particulier au film avec une alternance de "temps forts" et de "temps faibles". On peut également observer de nombreux plans de coupes montrant le public dans les tribunes. Ce dernier point est né d'une contrainte imposée par le comité olympique pour le tournage des films amateurs depuis les gradins. Chris Marker en a fait un parti pris qui donne au film une autre vision du sport plus centrée sur ceux qui le regardent que ceux qui le pratiquent.

The film provides an insight into an incident at the 1968 Summer Olympics which saw two United States athletes, Tommie Smith and John Carlos, give the black power salute from the victory dais after the 200 metres final. The film focuses on the third man on the dias, silver medal winner Peter Norman, who showed his support for Smith and Carlos by donning an "Olympic Project for Human Rights" (OPHR) badge on his way to the podium. It was also Norman who suggested to Smith and Carlos that they share the black gloves used in their salute, after Carlos had left his gloves in the Olympic Village. This is the reason for Smith raising his right fist, while Carlos raised his left. Asked later about his support of Smith and Carlos' cause by the world's press, Norman said he opposed his country's government's White Australia policy.
