Shot on 8mm film in 1953, this vintage home movie captures a swimmer in a pool, wearing a dark swim cap and moving through turquoise water with visible splashes. The footage shows a young person performing a freestyle stroke, with the pool's edge and ladder briefly visible. The film exhibits classic Super 8 characteristics: grainy texture, slight color fading, and natural film scratches. The scene evokes a nostalgic, summertime atmosphere, likely from a school or community pool. This archival clip offers authentic 1950s Americana for documentaries, historical projects, or nostalgic content.
