The use of Profane/Sacred Time and Space in the Fountain.
"The Fountain" is centered around the idea that when Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge they thrust the world into it's reality today, but if they had chosen to drink from the Tree of Life the world would be much different. Death and fear of it is a running theme within this film. The search for the preservation of life (with Tommy trying to save Izzy and find a cure for her cancer) in hopes to avoid death and all that comes with it as well as the search for eternal life (Tomas and Queen Isabella).
