A small thing, if it is not an optical illusion created by the filming.......
On the free, from the underwater shots, mostly after the push-off dolphin kicks (at about 35 secs on the video) and again at 43 secs, you present your whole face to the front which offers a lot of resistance.
On push-offs, your head should be between your shoulders and not lifted up. Your whole body, including your head, needs to be streamlined, like a pencil.
In general, you should be looking slightly more down towards the pool bottom and not so straight ahead. This helps with the sinking legs problem too.
