Two Mermaid wannabes audition at Weeki Wachee, a Florida attraction older than Disney World. Lorraine, obsessed with mermaids, invites Peggy, 79, to travel with her. We deep dive into vintage footage, learning what it takes to be a world-famous mermaid while getting to know Peggy and Lorraine. It’s never too late to dream or drown trying.
View the award-winning 18-minute documentary by Lorraine Portman, co-starring Harrisburg-area native Margaret Nicholson. Afterward, enjoy a talk-back with Margaret about her experience filming the documentary.
