Narrated by Elizabeth Banks and Hugh Jackman, directed by award-winning documentary filmmaker (and Olympian) Mary Mazzio, and produced by Mazzio along with Allison Abner (writer for Narcos, West Wing, Imperfect Women) and Atlanta Hawks owner and NBA All-Star, Grant Hill, in partnership with Skydance Sports and Paramount's Republic Pictures, Mighty Mary chronicles an amazing group of "we eat nails for breakfast" type of women: the first all-women's sailing team to contend for the famed America's Cup, the holy grail for one of sport's most elite and exclusive racing events. This team was groundbreaking, beginning with an advertisement in the New York Times (prompting hilarious responses from a wide swath of Americana who thought they might have what it takes to sail in the America's Cup, including a woman flexing in a bikini next to a cactus). From there, a group of world class and Olympic sailors as well as Olympic rowers came together, a team which included a deaf sailor, a Native Hawaiian sailor, and the first African-American sailor to ever win an America's Cup race (as a coach of this novice, erstwhile team). What was dismissed as a publicity stunt turned into something unimaginable. The crew (sailing aboard Mighty Mary) stunningly eliminated Stars and Stripes from contention, helmed by four-time America's Cup winner Dennis Conner ("Mr. America's Cup"). However, a secret backroom deal the night before the race upended that result.
