Row of Life

One woman’s irrepressible ambition to defy all odds led her to the Marine Corps, three Paralympics, and fourteen Guinness world records. Angela Madsen inspired millions, and at 60, embarked on the most ambitious journey of all: to become the first paraplegic and oldest woman to row the impossibly vast Pacific Ocean alone and unassisted.

ROW OF LIFE is about renowned ocean rower Angela Madsen, a Paralympic medalist, Marine Veteran, and 14x Guinness World Record holder who attempted her final solo Ocean row from Los Angeles to Hawaii in 2020. The film is a poetic story of bravery, resilience, and love between Angela and her wife Deb—separated by a vast ocean—supporting each other’s dreams despite what became the ultimate cost.
