Disney’s “Young Woman and the Sea,” the extraordinary true story of Trudy Ederle, the first woman to successfully swim the English Channel, is now streaming on Disney+.
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 and complete the staggering achievement – a 21-mile trek from France to England.
We’re incredibly proud to have been involved in helping to bring such an inspirational story to screens.
