Animated photographs of a girl, shot from above, are reflected in a bath of water. The higher the water level, the more distant the girl appears, as if we are looking down into a well. The movements she makes are tiny, barely discernible- she blinks, she tilts her head and adjusts her position. Deep in the water, she is deep in thought.
Occasional drips from the tap disrupt the delicate image, and as the water comes to rest the ghostly image appears again.
