In and Out of Planet Earth (2008)

Alex Hall: Narrator, The Fish

Quotes 

• Paul X : [X1 is spending 60 minutes underwater in the sea]  Nine minutes: I couldn't stand anyone or anything anymore.

  Narrator : [the Fish inside the sea]  Deep space, down below the final frontier. You can't measure it, you can't time it. Everything beats faster than the fastest beat on the surface of the ocean. The reproduction level is fifty times higher than the one on the surface. When someone's hungry, one eats as much as fifty humans during an entire day. One second on the surface equals sixty down under. One eats faster, one dies faster. This is the greatest landscape on earth.

  Paul X : Eleven minutes: I can hear myself breathing, breathing underwater. There is life inside, life underwater. It's still cold. I can feel this and smell things.

  Narrator : When it's cold, it's ten times colder. When it's hot it's ten times hotter. When it's dangerous, danger is omnipresent. There are billions of stories swarming at the bottom of the earth. There are the untold lives of millions of creatures shaping the ocean. It's a parallel universe guided by the continuous flow of water. One needs a map to guide oneself thru it all, a map of the Universe. Thoughts are everywhere. There is a superhighway of thinking. Thoughts come and go. 'I need. I want. I kill. I eat. I fuck. I die. Some creatures form the exception; they lie unabated for millions of years then move from planet to planet in search of a meaning. These creatures are themselves the stars rotating in a galactic stratosphere in the deep end of the cosmic ocean.
