Can you swim? And if not, would you admit it? Let’s suggest you could, did you ever swam really far out into the sea? Or do you love the security of the limiting lanes in a pool?
Our seven protagonists Monika, Manfred, Karin, Cevat, Eun-Sook, Erika and Sigrid all are above 60 years of age and went through the adventure of learning to swim. In our movie we walk along their fears together. Eventually after crying, laughing and dancing we go for swim.
