Memoirs Found in a Bathtub

Memoirs Found in a Bathtub is scheduled for release on April 28, 2026. The film draws on Stanislaw Lem's novel of the same name, in which a paper-destroying blight erased most of Earth's written record, leaving behind only the text of the book itself. The film transposes that premise into an unmarked future setting—possibly less distant than Lem's 3140s—where the remnants of civilization serve as backdrop. A narrated soundtrack reads from the last surviving fragments of what may be a reporter's notebook, a dream diary, or a book manuscript, leaving the nature of the document ambiguous. The original Portuguese title is Memórias Encontradas Numa Banheira.
