About the Event

THE POOL  Film Trailer HERE

Directed by Ian Darling

The Pool  is a spectacular cinematic portrait of the iconic Bondi Icebergs – the pool and the people who cherish it- but it's also a film about the love of water, swimming, ocean swimming and the social benefits of being in a club like the Icebergs.  It's a celebration of life.

Outstanding footage and a quintessential soundtrack are woven into a meditative and poetic story. Icebergs is the most photographed pool in the world – an inviting destination for everyone from locals to tourists, beginners to competitive lap swimmers.

From sunrise to sundown, rain or shine, we meet the diehard regulars recalling tales of Icebergs past and present.

Darling and his team, including DOP Ben Cunningham, editor Sally Fryer and sound designer Paul Charlier, have crafted an evocative, joyous and beautiful picture of a beloved place and its community.
