This gripping period drama from director Frida Kempff tells the story of Sally Bauer (portrayed with immense sensitivity by Josefin Neldén), a Swedish mother who pursues her dream of swimming the English Channel before the Second World War envelops Europe.
The “torpedo moniker is fitting as during her the Swedish swimming sensation took on a number of long-distance challenges, usually succeeding with flying colours. There is a novel and a play written about her inspiring life and now this feature film.
