A group of adult locals take a beginners swim class in Connecticut: Noah, the swim class teacher who's battling depression; Jordan, an exotic dancer/casino dealer who has little desire to trust men due to her jobs; and Amy, a high school teacher who is going through a divorce with another teacher at the school. Not everyone makes it through the class, but those who do come to realize that life isn't really about learning to swim, it's about getting into the water.
