The Icelandic documentary "Snorri and the Baby Swimming Club" tells of the daily work of a man they call the "baby whisper" on Iceland.

Squeaky babies who plump joyfully into the water and dive underwater, and parents who proudly sing songs with their babies as they splash around in the water. We are in the swimming school of Snorri Magnusson, a man who makes the miraculous possible and amazes both babies and parents. Snorri is no ordinary swimming teacher: he is the "baby whisperer". Freed from any false ambition, Snorri approaches children with remarkable empathy and loving patience. Snorri has already demonstrated this devotion to more than 7,000 babies and their parents - and now this filmic ode allows us to share it with them. The three Icelandic directors have succeeded in capturing the wondrous microcosm that Snorri creates with so much dedication day after day.
