<b>DISCOVER THE INCREDIBLE TRUE STORY BEHIND NETFLIX'S UPCOMING BLOCKBUSTER MOVIE <i>NYAD</i>.

After four attempts, sixty-four year-old Diana Nyad finally swam from Cuba to the Florida Keys. She swam for fifty-three hours, across one hundred and ten miles. <i>Find a Way</i> is her account of the epic quest which led to that moment – and a galvanizing call to live life boldly, in the moment and with no regrets.</b>

In the 1970s, Diana Nyad was widely regarded as the greatest long-distance swimmer in the world. She record after world record, circling Manhattan Island and crossing the 102.5 miles between the Bahamas and Florida. But one record continually eluded her: becoming the first woman to swim between Cuba and the Florida Keys without a shark cage. Finally, in September 2013, Diana completed the crossing.

Millions of people watched, cried and cheered for her tenacity and courage. <i>Find a Way</i> recounts this astonishing and hard-won triumph – and Diana's monumental courage in the face of failure. She failed, failed and failed again, but never gave up. With unwavering belief in the face of overwhelming odds, this is a story of perseverance, tenacity and commitment on an epic scale.
