Shot on 8mm film in 1967, this vintage home movie captures a man swimming in the ocean at a Brazilian beach. The footage shows him rising from the water as waves crash around him, with a distinct purple color cast typical of aged film. He wears red swim trunks and moves through the surf before standing and looking out at the sea. The grainy texture and dark borders frame the scene, evoking a nostalgic, personal memory of a summer day by the coast.
