Swimming Lesson (1970)
Filmed in 1970, this little-known short by Andrzej Wajda remained unseen for over five decades after being archived under the working title The Artist. Shot at swimming pools in Warsaw, it follows an athlete who savors the freedom of a solitary dive before joining a disciplined group of competitive swimmers. Originally made using leftover color film stock from Brzezina (1970), the film was digitally restored by TVP in 2026.
