Footage of men and boys diving off of a springboard at an indoor pool. They dive one after another and practice different approaches and diving techniques. This is followed by a shot of a mirrored mosaic tile wall that reflects the movements of people and the surrounding environment. An abstract image that appears to be a series of frames within the frame, the shot is revealed to be a sculpture or installation of some sort. Several shots of people in medium close-up and close up follow, and the reel ends by cutting back to more footage of men and boys diving at the indoor pool. Presumably related to Stratford Ontario Vacation Shots (F.2010-01-0242) and Stratford Original B+W (F.2010-01-0250).
