A young swimmer practices freestyle in a sunlit pool, captured on 8mm film in Yonkers, New York, 1953. The swimmer, wearing dark swim trunks, moves through the water with strong strokes, creating splashes and ripples. The footage shows natural film grain, slight color fading, and a blue-tinted palette typical of vintage home movies. Other swimmers appear briefly in the background, suggesting a recreational or training session. The camera remains steady, focusing on the swimmer's motion and technique. This authentic 1950s home movie offers nostalgic, archival footage ideal for documentaries, historical content, or retro-themed projects.
