Yusra Mardini’s story is nothing short of a film. She almost died on the treacherous boat journey over to Europe in 2015, forced to flee war-torn Syria in search of a new life. From there to competing in the Olympics and receiving a standing ovation, she has come a long way. "The Swimmers," a film that depicts her incredible journey, was released in November on Netflix. The inspiring story of Yusra Mardini continues to inspire people all around the world. Born in Damascus, she was a gifted swimmer, representing Syria at the 2012 FINA Short Course World Championships. She had a dream. A dream of winning Olympic gold.
