When you're swimming in the ocean, do you ever startle at a piece of seaweed? Mistake a wave for a fin? Does the thought of sharks cross your mind at all? Nearly 50 years ago, a little movie by the name of Jaws, changed everything.

This event was recorded at the National Film and Sound Archive, in partnership with the Australian National University, on 28 February 2024.
