Swimming Home is a 2024 black comedy–drama film directed by Justin Anderson in his directorial debut. Based on the 2011 novel of the same name by Deborah Levy, the film stars Christopher Abbott, Mackenzie Davis and Ariane Labed.[1] The film revolves around Joe and Isabel, whose marriage is dying when Kitti, a naked stranger is found floating in the pool at their holiday villa. It is described as "a surreal and darkly comic journey into the unresolved traumas that lurk in the shadows of all our lives."[2] The film is a co-production between companies based in the United Kingdom and France.[3]
The film competed in Tiger Competition at 53rd International Film Festival Rotterdam, where it had its premiere on 29 January 2024.[4]
