Shot on 8mm film in 1953, this vintage home movie captures youth swimmers practicing in a residential pool in Yonkers, New York. The footage shows several individuals in dark swimsuits performing freestyle strokes, creating splashes in the blue water. The grainy, slightly faded color palette and visible film scratches evoke a nostalgic, mid-century American summer. The camera remains stationary, observing the swimmers from the poolside, offering a candid glimpse into a past era of leisure and health-focused recreation.
