Action in Slow Motion is a 1943 British silent short film.[1][2]

In the short film, which runs only three minutes, a nude woman is depicted frolicking in the surf. The film then re-plays the same action in slow motion from a different angle. It was often described as an "art film" to dispute that it was outright pornography. A card at the beginning warns the viewer that the film is intended only for art students, and exhibition for other purposes could result in prosecution or jail time.[2]

The only known print of this film was gifted to the British Film Institute, and is notable as an early depiction of full frontal female nudity in British cinema. The film has no production credits, so its author, and other information surrounding its production, are unknown.[3]
