Another hidden figure in the history of sports. The movie tells the true story of Trudy Ederle, first woman to swim the English Channel at a time when women were not allowed to swim - and she did it two hours faster than the quickest man. A story well-told with Daisy Ridley of Stars Wars in the lead time.
