Abstract
The project presented in these pages connects to two simultaneous approaches, a piece of filmic art that follows the travel of a character and a detailed research. The work is based on the investigation and classification of more than 41 abandoned water parks in Spain and Portugal and, in turn, on the compilation of data on issues that are very relevant in the contemporary context; such as the use of water, its value in a climate crisis scenario and the evolution of the actual leisure model.
