This remix of films from the ACMI Collection features footage of people sunbathing, playing at beaches during warm summers in Victoria. Notably, people are seen lounging around and diving into the Beaurepaire Pool, Melbourne’s first 50-metre Olympic-size swimming pool, formerly located on Batman Avenue.
