Abstract: The freshwater that flows through Hong Kong's pipeline gives the city, which is naturally water stressed, the appearance of abundance. However, Hong Kong's water crisis necessitates a new effective response to the circulating space in the city, especially given how closely its urban sphere is linked to its surrounding water ecosystem. The Hong Kong film Public Toilet confronts the environmental-disconnection issue by drawing on the submerged perspectives within a hydrocommon habitat by emphasizing ecocosmopolitanism. This paper contends that visions of alternative urban life are enunciated through evoking our ecological awareness in the film.
