The Pool, selected for the Sydney Film Festival, Adelaide Film Festival, CinefestOz and Byron Bay Film Festival, is a visually stunning and emotional cinematic experience filmed over a year at Sydney’s iconic Bondi Icebergs pool.
Bondi Icebergs is the most photographed pool in the world. More than just an Instagram destination, this pool is at once a meeting place, a resting place, and a place of romance and ritual. We come to understand that for those who seek it out, and return, it is a symbol of inclusivity, healing and resilience.
Featuring a soundtrack that harks back to the 1960s and a cast of characters who each have a story to tell, The Pool speaks to the enduring power of community and our collective longing to find it.
“We wanted to make a happy feel-good film, that would put a smile on audiences faces, allow them to dream, and even inspire them to swim.” – Director Ian Darling
The Pool will open in selected cinemas nationally from November 7, with director Ian Darling, producer Mary Macrae and swimmers from the film participating in Q&A screenings along the eastern seaboard across November. Screening dates to be announced.
