The surest way to get rid of depression
When an accountant, played by multi-talented comedian Rob Brydon, seeks to win back his wife Heather, he stumbles upon a surprising solution in the form of a male synchronised swimming team: Men Who Swim.
Joining his local team of male synchronised swimming, Eric (Rob Brydon) finds a surprising brotherhood in this motley crew as they train for the world championships in Milan. Can their coach Susan whip them into shape? Will they master 'the flower’, 'the pyramid’ and 'the spinning circle’ in time? More importantly, can Eric win Heather back with the help of his newfound confidence?
