This is the second time that i saw this movie. Normally, i would've made reams of reviews but i don't want to do that to not break the enchantment.
What you will find is "death, where you seek the immortality.
Explicatiosn are incredible. The story is actually very clear. The sections in Space and Spain is actually the illustration of the book that is Izzy writing and i think other scenes are reality but it is open-ended. In the book, she is the Queen of Spain and Tomas is the Conquistador who is seeking the "Tree of Life" to save Spain. In reality, Izzy is dying and Tommy is bent on to save her. Tomas drank Tree of Life and cheated death with the result of losing both his life and Spain (The Woman). Metaphorically, after he drink the tree he drops his ring and dies and flowers grow from ground and his fragments poured to dead tree and tree revived. Both these scenes are the symbols of "circle of life and death" which is the symbol of "Ouroboros".
Fountain is a circular system. The water rises, comes to peak point then falls and comes back to filter and pumps upwards again and it is a circle. If it just rises forever, then there will be no water in fountain. So the existence is like that. If there will be no "downfall" or "death" there could be no "life".
But the most beautiful thing that it is just an interpretation an it is open-ended.
By the way i am astonished by the scene of Xibalba, the Mayan dead star of afterlife from Orion.
