Each summer, Sweden welcomes competitors from over 21 countries to the five day "O-Ringen" competition -- the largest Orienteering Meet in the World. Filmed during the 1973 meet in Rättvik, this film follows young and old of all sizes and levels of ability as they wind their ways, with map and compass in hand, along prescribed routes through the countryside. As well, it reports on the daily events of the competition and gives a good picture of its general organization. A motivational film What Makes Them Run? is particularly suited for showing by fitness groups, recreational services and high schools.

Ce documentaire nous amène en Suède où se tenait, en juillet 1973, une course au championnat dans une discipline promise à un vif succès ici, si l'on en juge par l'énorme popularité dont elle jouit en Suède : l'orientation en forêt. Les concurrents sont appelés à parcourir à pied un tracé en forêt : ils disposent de boussoles et de cartes. À certains points de contrôle répartis le long du parcours, ils doivent faire viser une fiche. Voilà un sport que toute la famille peut pratiquer, avec un équipement des plus réduits.
