Never Too Old

The documentary portrays the story of the four Australians who achieved, for the first time in the country’s history, the national age record for the 360 category in swimming competitions. The youngest member of the team is 87 years old and the oldest is 92. Their ages combined is more than three centuries and a half.
Our purpose is to present for all generations their amazing achievement as well as their impressive attitude towards life, while also showing that you are never too old to keep swimming.
We uncover historical aspects of their journey, highlight which aspects have led them to be so active in their age, and the benefits swimming has added to their physical and emotional health.
