Trailer for the film "The Swimmers" about two refugee sisters

"We have to move on. We have no right to give up." Netflix has released a trailer for a movie called The Swimmers, directed by a Welsh-Egyptian filmmaker named Sally El-Hosaini. It will soon premiere at the 2022 Toronto Film Festival, hence this trailer which is coming now, before it hits streaming on Netflix in November. From war-torn Syria to the 2016 Rio Olympics, two sisters embark on a harrowing journey as refugees, putting both their hearts and their swimming skills to heroic use. Based on the true story of the miraculous journey of swimming sisters Yusra and Sarah Mardini who fled war-torn Syria to the Rio Olympics in 2016. Starring Nathalie Issa (as Yusra) and Manal Issa (as Sara ) as the two sisters, as well as Matthias Schweighöfer, Ahmed Malek, James Krishna Floyd, Nahel Tzegai, with Kinda Alloush and Ali Suliman. It's a fantastic teaser, with the song "Titanium ft. Sia" by David Guetta, and lots of emotional footage. I plan to watch this when it comes out later this fall.

Here is the official trailer (+ poster) for The Swimmers by Sally El-Hosaini, direct from YouTube:
