Olympia is a 1998 film about a Mexican soap opera star who leaves her career behind to pursue her first love - javelin throwing. She comes to the United States and takes up with a coach who's never coached before.

Director Bob Byington suggests that the movie is about doing something you don't know how to do.[citation needed]

The movie won the Grand Jury prize for best drama at the Long Island Film Festival.[citation needed]
