SOUTHAMPTON NEW YORK-1937: Three women in vintage bathing suits lounge on towels by a poolside, smoking cigarettes and chatting. Two children rest nearby, one lying down and another sitting up. The black-and-white 8mm home movie captures a relaxed, sun-drenched afternoon with natural film grain and soft focus, evoking a nostalgic 1930s leisure scene. The women wear classic one-piece swimsuits and light summer dresses, while the children are in swimwear. The setting is a quiet outdoor area with trees and a paved surface, typical of a private or resort pool. The footage shows subtle movement as the women adjust their positions and interact, with one lighting a cigarette. The overall mood is casual and intimate, reflecting a moment of everyday life from the era.
