A video shot from across the River Liffey looking towards the Customs House in Dublin, where import and export are assessed. Figure, both in body and number, shows a man climbing onto a wall in front of the grand building. He dives into the river, turns and swims back to a ladder and climbs out. He turns around and dives in again, repeating this several times, eventually he does not resurface.
