There really are Jewish sports heroes! Watermarks traces the history of a Jewish women's swim team in 1930s Vienna to their reunion 65 years later. The women, now in their 80s and each living in different countries, return to gather, reminisce, and flutter kick. Focusing on their lives after fleeing, the film never gets mushy-Holocausty, and is pretty fascinating--I mean, how many documentaries on Jewish women swimmers have you seen lately? There are inevitable parallels to the reunion scene in A League of Their Own, but if that's not your bag, rest assured there's footage of 80-year-old women in swimsuits
