Thanks to our friends at Madman Entertainment and Shark Island Productions, we have five double passes to give away to The Pool, a feature documentary directed by Ian Darling, opening in selected cinemas from November 7.

Bondi Icebergs is the most photographed pool in the world. More than just an Instagram destination, this pool is at once a meeting place, a resting place, and a place of romance and ritual. We come to understand that for those who seek it out, and return, it is a symbol of inclusivity, healing and resilience.

Featuring a soundtrack that harks back to the 1960s and a cast of characters who each have a story to tell, The Pool speaks to the enduring power of community and our collective longing to find it.

This competition has now closed. Thank you to everyone who entered.
