Distribution rights to the inspirational sports documentary “Stronger Than You Think,” which tells the story of Paralympic star swimmer Ali Truwit, have been acquired by Sox Entertainment.

Truwit made international headlines at the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris when she competed (and won two silver medals) as a swimmer barely a year after losing her lower-left leg in a shark attack while swimming in Turks and Caicos in May 2023. The Connecticut native had just graduated from Yale University two days before with dual major in cognitive science and behavioral economics. She was already an accomplished swimmer who competed for Yale.
