On a painting -also projection screen- are known and unknown people from Rotterdam falling from nowhere to the river Maas. Without a parachute, without diving gear. Their flight is triggered by passers-by in the lobby (via webcam), they fall in random order. Known Rotterdam inhabitants like Loes Luca, Jack Kerklaan, Arjo Klamer or Martin van Waardenberg can be recognised. There are 20 different persons falling. Each fall ends with a dive in the water, followed by a quick tour. The scattering of the water is programmed to be like the real sun. There is no coincident the depicted stream and land is the Broadcasting area of RTV Rijnmond.
