Yesterday we visited the castle of La Latte, a fortress dating back to the 14th century. Inside its chapel I noticed this hole in the ceiling.

It reminded me of the blockbuster The Truman Show, where the main character (Jim Carrey) sails out with a boat, only to find out that he has been living his life inside a filmstudio, when he crashes the boat against the painted horizon. He escapes the set through a door in the sky.

The moment of delusion: Truman crashes his boat against the backdrop
