SWIM tells the story of two boys who meet at a public pool and form an ambiguous bond. Their relationship unfolds without clarity - neither fully sexual nor strictly platonic. This openness invites questions around intimacy, gender and queer identity. Initially inspired by hydrophilia in queer cinema, the work evolved into a study of water, Blackness, and freedom. Public space becomes a site for safe exploration, where the characters encounter each other without consequence. Peter Spanjer blends experimental film, sound and text to examine the queer Black body and its sensual, complex presence in spaces often marked by exclusion.
