A man in a swimsuit enjoys a swim in a lake or river, captured on vintage 8mm film in 1951. He laughs and splashes in the water, then rinses his face. Later, two people, one wearing a green swim cap, swim together in the rippling water. The footage shows classic Super 8 film grain and color saturation, evoking a nostalgic summer memory from New York.
