This film is adapted from the true story of Marilyn Bell (played by Caroline Dhavernas). Marilyn Bell was 16 years old at that time. She was an excellent swimmer and was trying to become the first person to swim across Lake Ontario. But at that time, there was also a top American swimmer, Florence Chadwick, competing with her for the first place in this special swimming marathon. Because Florence Chadwick has been through many battles, most people believe that she will win in the end. But unexpectedly, Florence Chadwick's underestimation of the difficulty along the way led to her withdrawal from the race, while Marilyn Bell persisted until the end and eventually became the first person to cross Lake Ontario.[Collapse]
