This award-winning film weaves the past and present of both Alcatraz and the Pine Ridge Reservation into a vivid depiction of the awe-inspiring journey the five youth navigate. It follows the group’s first plunge into the San Francisco Bay through their personal and collective challenges, disappointments and triumphs. Together, they strive to conquer both the Alcatraz swim and the dispiritedness connected to conditions on Pine Ridge.
