NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM DISNEY STARRING DAISY RIDLEY.<\/p>\n

The exhilarating true story of Trudy Ederle, the first woman to swim the English Channel, and inspire a new era for women in sports<\/p>\n

By age twenty, at the height of the Jazz Age, Trudy Ederle was the most accomplished swimmer in the world. She\u2019d won Olympic gold and set a host of world records. But the greatest challenge remained: the English Channel. Only a few swimmers, none of them women, had ever made the treacherous twenty-one mile crossing. Trudy\u2019s failed first attempt seemed to confirm what many naysayers believed: No woman could possibly accomplish such a thing.<\/p>\n

In 1926, Ederle proved them wrong. As her German immigrant parents cheered her, and her sister and fellow swimmer Meg helped fashion both her scandalous two-piece swimsuit and leak-proof goggles, Trudy was determined to succeed. \u201cEngland or drown is my motto,\u201d she said, plunging into the frigid Channel for her second attempt at the crossing. Fourteen hours later, two hours faster than any man, and after weathering a gale and waves that approached six-feet, she stepped onto Kingsdowne Beach as the most famous woman in the world.<\/p>\n

Based on years of archival research that unearthed Ederle\u2019s memory from obscurity, Young Woman and the Sea brings to life the real Trudy Ederle, the challenges that came with her fame, and the historic mark her achievement made for all women athletes who followed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
