A fast-paced mad-cap underwater underdog story of how to stay afloat when life keeps trying to rip off your floaties.
Sometimes, life in a small town can feel like drowning. Michael and Emma were the darlings of Mollybrooke, but after a doping scandal ruins her dreams of competing at the Olympics, and a freak accident kills his twin brother and his will to live (let alone swim), the two former prodigies are now town pariahs. Desperate to get back into the town’s good books, Emma signs them up for the first ever mixed-gender medley relay at the grand opening of the town’s new aquatic centre – an enormous, multi-million eyesore that has been built with the generous donation of local billionaires, the Seabourne family.
Over the course of a breakneck 70 minutes, we follow a ragtag group of misfits as they find a way to set aside their differences, work as a team, survive dryland training, and maybe even become the very people keeping each other afloat.
Grab your cossies, strap on your goggles, and come take a plunge with us.
Director Zoë Hollyoak; with Annie Stafford, Matthew McDonald, Melissa Kahraman, Zarif
