SynopsisFormer Olympic swimmer Karolina Szczepaniak attempts to become the first woman to swim 172 kilometers non-stop across the Baltic Sea. A patient, observational documentary that moves with intimacy and restraint—following her endurance journey while revealing the psychological weight of a high-performance sports career, the emotional cost of control, and the tender force of queer love in contemporary Poland.
