POOL BOYS – alleine geht man unter, gemeinsam kann man schweben
(POOL BOYS – alone one drowns, together you can hover)
"POOL BOYS" is a photo book which features the only male synchronized swimming team in Germany. It documents the training of five mid-aged men who are members of the gay-lesbian volleyball club in Frankfurt when they studied a new choreography. It shows a very personal, special look behind the scenes und penetrates below the surface of this dazzling sport which is actually dominated by women. Although men – according to Olympia – don't fit in this sport, this group practice this synchronized swimming for 20 years with great enthusiasm, motivation and fun.
