A public pool, a sociotope. A scene of daydreaming and gentle snoozing. It is a place where everything is fine, or at least it feels like it. The smell of summer is in the air. In the tightest of spaces many half-naked people share an afternoon, some hours with each other while time flies by so quickly. The madness of everyday life.
