And we'll see the sunsets across the Pyrenees from the lake of Laurie Anderson:
...Meet me by the lake. Meet me by the lake.
I'll be there. I'll be there.
If only I had the time. To tell you how I climbed
Out of the darkness. Out of my mind.
And I come sliding where I've been hiding
Out of the heart of a child.
Sunrise comes across the mountains.
Sunrise comes across the day.
Sunsets sit across the lakeside.
Sunsets across the Pyrenees...

A film: "Vicky Cristina Barcelona"
We get used, first, to telematic relations with "10,000 km". Then we went straight to terror with "REC: Película". From there we started the de-escalation with a thriller, "The Machinist", and now we continue to de-escalate to land in the comedy with "Vicky Cristina Barcelona", a Spanish-American co-production directed by Woody Allen in 2008.
Synopsis: Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) are two young North Americans with opposite life perspectives, who are going to Barcelona for a summer vacation. Vicky is sensitive and intends to marry; Cristina is emotional and looking for new sexual adventures. During their stay in Barcelona, both are involved in an unconventional relationship with Juan Antonio (Javier Bardem), a charismatic painter who still maintains a relationship with his tempestuous ex-wife, María Elena (Penélope Cruz).

A book: "Cathedral of the Sea"
Get on the time machine to visit the Born quarter of the 14th century. You will be guided by the life of Arnau, a servant of the land who flees from the abuses of his feudal lord and takes refuge in Barcelona, where he becomes a citizen and, with it, a free man. Barcelona is in a moment of great prosperity. The city has grown towards La Ribera, a humble quarter of fishermen, whose inhabitants decide to build, with the money of some and the effort of others, the largest Marian temple ever known: Santa María del Mar. In a plot in which they intersect loyalty and revenge, betrayal and love, war and plague, in a world marked by religious intolerance, material ambition and social segregation. Ildefonso Falcones's work is not only an absorbing novel, but also a fascinating and ambitious recreation of the lights and shadows of the feudal era. The characters of "The Cathedral of the Sea" walk through well-known streets and squares of Born such as Plaça de les Olles, Pla de Palau, Carrer de las Dames, Carrer de Montcada or Carrer de Sant Jaume.
