Rock Bottom

Spain, Poland 2024 Animation cor 86 min.

In 1973 New York, famous rock musician Bob reunites with his former colleagues at a wild party filled with excesses. Amidst the chaos of alcohol, drugs, sex, and music, Bob, completely stoned, has a romantic encounter with Caroline, an admirer of his music. Meanwhile, Alif, his girlfriend, roams the city streets in search of him. Their paths intersect when Alif discovers Bob just moments before his accidental fall. Miraculously, Bob’s fall transports him back in time to a serene summer in Mallorca, months earlier. Accompanied by the enchanting melodies of Robert Wyatt’s album, Rock Bottom, Bob and Alif enjoy an idyllic time on the beach, amidst surreal hallucinations, where the boundaries between past and future blur.
