Diana Nyad has never lost sight of her life-long dream. Coached by her partner, Bonnie, the 64-year-old wants to be the first person to swim the 177 kilometres from Cuba to Florida – without a shark cage. In addition to the physical challenge, this daring undertaking in the open ocean involves countless other dangers. But neither her five previous failed attempts nor her advancing years can keep Diana from facing the huge hurdle again and achieving her life-long dream. Based on Nyad's autobiography "Find a Way", the Oscar-winning FREE SOLO directors Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin tell the captivating story of a strong-willed sportswoman. Annette Bening shines in the leading role alongside Jodie Foster as her trainer in this inspiring biopic.
