This documentary is the story of the Pink Lionesses, Israel, a unique women's sports group, consisting of breast cancer survivors, that paddle on Dragon Boats, on the Sea of Galilee in Northern Israel. Their common goal is to recover, recuperate and combat their cancer. They have chosen optimism, action, caring for themselves despite the intense difficulties and fear they must rise from.
