Oblivion premiered in Buenos Aires on March 26, 2013, with its director Joseph Kosinski while starring Morgan Freeman along with Tom Cruise, Andrea Riseborough, and Olga Kurylenko. A dreamlike sequence in the movie takes place within the elevated futuristic residence known as the Sky Tower that stands above the clouds. The surreal pool scene generates a dreamlike and heavenly atmosphere because Victoria calmly floats in the blue water as clouds drift beneath her. The timeless image in the movie obtains its beauty from glass walls combined with mirrored surfaces and ambient lighting that produces a weightless, surreal feeling.
