The filmmaker will be in attendance for a Q&A

In the spring and summer of 2006, Air Force veteran David Broyles and Army officer Rush Vann decide to raise money and awareness for disabled veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan by attempting to swim the Strait of Gibraltar. If they succeed they will become only the 16th and 17th Americans to record a successful crossing. Fewer Americans have accomplished their challenge than have climbed Mount Everest.
