The video shows a rowing competition between two teams on a river. The teams are in long, narrow boats called sculls, each with two rowers and a coxswain. The rowers are dressed in matching uniforms and are using oars to propel their boats forward. The water is choppy, indicating strong winds and waves. The teams are racing towards the finish line, which is marked by a white buoy. The spectators are cheering from the sidelines, and there are tents set up along the riverbank. The sky is overcast, and the trees in the background are lush and green.
