Before Yusra could get her Olympic victory, the sisters had to cross an ocean aboard a lifeboat, together with dozens of immigrants escaping the horrors in Syria. Their inspiring story is becoming a drama on Netflix this November and should help people understand how hard it really is to grow in a country torn apart by war.
