Deep End is a 1970 psychological comedy drama film co-written and directed by Jerzy Skolimowski, starring Jane Asher, John Moulder Brown and Diana Dors.[1] The film is a co-production between Germany and the United Kingdom. Set in London, the film centers on a 15-year-old boy who develops an infatuation with his older, beautiful co-worker at a suburban bath house and swimming pool.

The film premiered at the Venice Film Festival on 1 September 1970. Deep End, considered a cult classic, went unreleased for many years due to rights issues. In 2011, it was given a digital restoration with the cooperation of the British Film Institute and was released in theaters and on home media.
