SINK OR SWIM (LE GRAND BAIN)

France| 2018 | Comedy, Drama | French w English Subtitles | 14A

Director: Gilles Lellouche

Starring some of France’s best male actors (Guillaume Canet, Mathieu Amalric and Jean-Hugues Anglade) wearing Speedos, Sink or Swim is pure feel-good entertainment.

A group of depressed middle-aged men address their collective midlife crisis when they learn of the existence of a team of male synchronized swimmers at their local pool. Amateurs are welcome, which is just as well given that the bunch of current members is neither  synchronized nor especially professional.

Braving the skepticism and ridicule of those around them, and trained by fallen champion Delphine (Virginie Efira), the group sets out on an unlikely adventure. They get to know each other in depth, exposing their flaws in the privacy of the changing rooms or in the bar after training in the pool, before setting themselves an overambitious objective: representing France in the world championships in Norway. On the way they rediscover a little self-esteem and a lot about themselves and each other.

A surefooted crowdpleaser with warmth and committed talents of a stellar ensemble cast. Screen International
