What happens
58 Seconds (Hungarian: 58 másodperc) is a 1964 Hungarian sports documentary short film directed by Lívia Gyarmathy. It delves into the demanding training regimen of competitive swimmers, and shows the agony and ecstasy of derbies themselves. The director went to Margaret Island to interview star Hungarian swimmers of the day, such as Ágota Sebő and Valéria Gyenge, but ultimately decided to go with an amateur swimmer instead. The film is Gyarmathy's directorial debut. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
