一群年紀相仿的中年不惑男子們，因想逃離一成不變的工作煩悶及家庭生活，將他們對人生的熱情投入於男子水上芭蕾的社團活動中。然而當他們游出興趣，希望能更上一層樓的同時，他們決定參加全歐洲男子水上芭蕾競賽……。從只是打發時間的業餘活動，到聘請專業教練、勤奮練習高難度的水上體操動作，這一連串肉體與心靈的掙扎，究竟為這群苦情的中年男性們提供了什麼樣的情緒出口？又為他們的人生帶來怎樣的契機呢？
MEN WHO SWIM is a humorous and poignant look at a group of middle aged men who have found unlikely success as members of Sweden’s all male synchronized swimming team. What began as a weekly escape from the daily grind of work and family responsibilities, gradually evolved into a more serious commitment. 2009 is also a significant year for many in the team as over half of them will turn 40. It is an age when they must take stock of their lives and ask themselves what they have achieved, and wonder where they are going in the future.
