The Swedish Torpedo
The true underdog story of how Swedish mum Sally Bauer became determined to realise her dream of swimming the English channel is recounted in this sensitive and vibrant period biopic. Sally Bauer was a Swedish mum on a mission. Born in 1908, she had a fierce passion for long-distance swimming and a dream of crossing the English Channel. The water was the least of her challenges, since she also faced the expectations of society at the time - particularly as she was a single mother - along with the looming threat of the Second World War. Josefin Neldén brings a vibrant determination to the role of Sally, focused on her aim, even as she navigates her personal relationships. Frida Kempff recounts Sally’s remarkable story with verve on dry land and in the water.
