    Inspiring!

    Inspiring to the max! This is a documentary that will give hope and challenge you to meet your own limitations head on. Very insightful on the debilitating effects of cystic fibrosis and one young womans determination to rise above her circumstances and achieve her dreams. I hope she now knows about the new break through in cystic fibrosis just recently discovered that seems to be giving back those who suffer from it their life. Kuddos to entire cast and crew for a beautifully done doc!

    Love!

    I'm on a roll right now, finding inspiration in sports documentaries. And I'm not even much of an athlete! But you don't need to be an athlete or even that into sports to find inspiration in this doc about champion surfer Breana Schroeder. I mean, seriously... if she can deal with the difficulties of cystic fibrosis and still rise to a supreme challenge, surely I can meet my daily challenges. That's the kind of inspiration you can draw from a film like this.

    This movie is so skillfully and humanly crafted. And it made me care so much. I just loved Breana and this film!

    Her life a metaphor for perseverance

    Beating the odds barely describes the journey of Breana Schroeder, a young woman living with cystic fibrosis, a hereditary disease that clogs the lungs with mucus and also impact the digestive system. Blending beautifully shot and scored sporting footage with intimate windows on Breana's growth from an infant to a champion tandem surfer, this perfectly measured doco is so inspiring it can only humble us. Highly recommended.

    Inspiring Documentary

    Breathe Breana is an inspiring documentary. It tells the story of a young women with cystic fibrosis who, despite all of her challenges, dreams of becoming a champion tandem surfer. It's remarkable tale of perseverance and it might just change your perspective a little bit. The film is also well crafted -- so compliments to the filmmaking team. I think many of us are getting tired of the reality shows on television, or the depressing news every night, but Breathe Breana has an important and inspiring real-life story to showcase that I think everyone should watch for themselves. Highly recommend.

    An inspiring character story!

    Breathe Breana is the true story about a surfer with cystic fibrosis who won't give up on her dreams. It carries a different style for a documentary that worked for this storyline. It's a powerful story and should be a documentary on everybody's list.
