50 An award winning film about the paradox of coastal people not knowing how to swim! Free Swim follows a group of kids on the island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas as they overcome their fears and learn to swim in open waters.
With fresh memories of a friend drowning and the conflicts of growing tourism, for these kids it’s not just about floating, but gaining new skills for their future.
Free Swim uses the topic of learning to swim as a way to explore more complicated aspects of life on Eleuthera, so long and thin an island that it’s like walking a tightrope between two bodies of water.
A Jennifer Galvin film for Reel Blue LLC.
