In 1978, Diana Nyad fail<\/span>s<\/span> to swim from Cuba to Florida, a 110-mile ordeal in shark-infested waters. Years pass. Celebrity has dimmed. The former long-distance swimmer finds herself lost. \u201cYou turn 60 and the world treats you like a bag of bones,\u201d Nyad (Annette Bening) tells her best friend Bonnie (Jodie Foster). So Nyad heads to the pool after a 30-year break. Soon, she is convinced she can swim to Cuba. As she spends years battling nature\u2019s viciousness and pushing her threshold for pain, we learn that this is not an ego trip.
