Shot on 8mm film in 1953, this vintage home movie captures a woman swimming in a backyard pool in Yonkers, New York. She wears a white swim cap and a dark patterned swimsuit, her arm extended as she performs a freestyle stroke through the blue water. The footage shows natural film grain, slight color fading, and authentic home movie imperfections, conveying a nostalgic, personal moment of summer recreation. The scene is intimate and candid, reflecting mid-century domestic leisure.
