A man swims in the sea near a weathered wooden dock in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in 1956. Shot on 8mm film, the footage captures him moving through the water before climbing onto the dock. The scene transitions to a close-up of the Town of Provincetown seal on a building facade, highlighting its historical marker. The grainy, color-bleached aesthetic evokes mid-century Americana and personal memory.
