Young Woman and the Sea

Watch Trailer Buy tickets
“(A) Beautifully Classical Movie! Lovely and riveting at every turn, Joachim Rønning’s Trudy Ederle biopic is a winning celebration of feminine perseverance and sisterhood…classically glorious “Young Woman and The Sea,” a defiantly big-screen, consistently enthralling biopic that both earns one’s genuine tears, and inspires everyone of all ages to dream a little bigger, go a little further. – Tomris Laffly, Variety

Daisy Ridley (STAR WARS) stars as the accomplished swimmer Trudy Ederle, who was born to immigrant parents in New York City in 1905. Through the steadfast support of her older sister and supportive trainers, Trudy overcame adversity and the animosity of a patriarchal society to rise through the ranks of the Olympic swimming team to complete a staggering achievement – becoming the first woman to successfully swim the English Channel, a 21-mile trek from France to England.
