11/28/2019 I watched this documentary as an avid open water swimmer expecting an in-depth birds eye insider view of a woman attempting a phenomenal physical and mental challenge. Of course the swimming is centre stage, yes, but the real story becomes about a single mother's journey with her autistic child. A worthy film if you are interested in either story.
