Summary:
"A quest for answers and a personal journey of healing amid tragedy. After a mother's three-year-old son drowns, she is confronted with the silent epidemic of childhood drowning. She investigates why there is so little information about the number one cause of death in children under four. As she travels to meet other parents who have experienced similar devastation, we see her film is just as much about seeking solace as it is about finding solutions. The documentary delves into the history of childhood drowning by speaking with pediatricians, water safety advocates, and stakeholders. The discussion considers what we can do to shift the pendulum and fight against childhood drowning and create more racial equity in water safety. The raw depiction of loss, perseverance, and community shows how pain can be turned into purpose and truly effect change." -- Container.
