Inspired by frescoes in a simple 10th-century Spanish dwelling, this film weaves thoughtful and unexpected threads between a hermitage, a museum and a spa.

In the province of Soria – an oasis in the middle of a desert – stands the Mozarabic dwelling of San Baudelio. Built in the 10th century and once the home of a hermit, it has been built with a central pillar that spreads its arms like a palm tree. In Madrid’s Prado Museum, an exhibition room houses paintings that were torn from San Baudelio. Built at the end of the 20th century, the museum has a square floor plan with a central pillar and expanding fronds. In Burgo de Osma, there is a spa with similar paintings to those of San Baudelio. Built recently, it features a similar architectural design. Could a simple home, a museum and a spa share a commonality across time and cultures?
