It's so heartwarming! If you love the Olympics, you’ll love this movie. If you love sisterhood, you’ll love it. If you love overcoming ridiculous odds, beating people’s expectations of you, and a lovely ensemble cast rooted in a truly thoughtful and determined performance by the lead, then you must give this a try. I don’t cry at movies, but I cried twice—it’s that good!

Synopsis

Through the steadfast support of her older sister and trainers, Trudy Ederle overcomes adversity and the animosity of a patriarchal society to rise through the ranks of the Olympic swimming team and complete a 21-mile trek from France to England.
