"We need to move so that Sisi is in the frame. Is Sisi in it?" "Now a nice one!" "Let's ask her." Tereza picks up a cell phone belonging to the family of three at the railing. They position themselves for her, taking Sisi between them. A souvenir on the Váh. Tereza lived here before she left. It is said, according to the tourist guide, that a wounded swan became a healthy woman in this warm spring. However, when the animal longs to return to its former life as a bird, it decides to enter the river a second time, but dissolves in the mist of the water. For Živá Voda's concept of home is as formless as steam.

Prof. Angela Schanelec: Tereza travels to the spa town where she grew up to renew her passport. She is neither a guest nor a resident of the town. She meets a young man. He is the only one who notices when she disappears again.
