When he reached the end, his first thought was, “This is amazing.” His next thought was: How could he possibly capture what he had just read on screen? “Young Woman and the Sea” tells the story of Trudy Ederle, played by Daisy Ridley, who in 1926 became the first woman to swim across the English Channel.
