Synopsis
The best thing Iver (9) knows is swimming, but today his swimming lesson has been cancelled. Nonetheless he manages to get past the receptionist. No matter what Iver does in the swimming pool, the strict sound of the lifeguard’s whistle is heard. Eventually he gets thrown out. He is sulking in the reception area. People are leaving the swimming pool, and Iver gets an idea! He sneaks back in to swim some more. But suddenly he hears somebody coming – it’s the scary lifeguard...
