| Summary |
Swimming Upstream is the true story of a swimming champion from the late '50s and early '60s, Anthony (Tony) Fingleton. Watching a father dismiss his child and openly wish the child had never been born is tough, tougher still for that poor child. It is hard to understand even when that child is a deadbeat and a loser, but when the child is not only loving but also gifted, the abuse is criminal |
