Recommended: The Man Who Lost The Sea
The Man Who Lost The Sea is a great SF story by Theodore Sturgeon. It is, In fact, my all-time favorite SF story; and I've read thousands. And ever since I read it the first time, I've wanted to have a picture/painting of the main scene in the story.
And now I do!!!!! The final scene in this movie is virtually identical to the scene in The Man Who Lost The Sea.
Read it. It's very short -- about 20 minutes worth or so. Absolutely wonderful.
