CLOSING NIGHT! ROW OF LIFE

---

Q&A WITH SUBJECT DEBRA MADSEN TO FOLLOW OUR CLOSING NIGHT SCREENING!

Former Marine, three-time Paralympian, fourteen-time Guinness World Record setter, and renowned ocean rower Angela Madsen is committed to her sport. By chronicling the year leading up to Madsen’s unsupported solo row from Los Angeles to Hawai’i, director Soraya Simi captures both the everyday beauty of a sapphic love story and an athlete’s fearless tenacity. Once Madsen embarks on her nearly 3,000-mile journey, however, Row of Life takes a harrowing turn when the film team and Angela’s wife, Debra Madsen, suddenly lose contact with the rower. 

A poetic story of bravery, resilience, and love, Row of Life spotlights the remarkable life of an unsung gay athlete and is a testament to the transformative, affirming power of sports.
