tears in rain

Digital images decomposing in rain-like effects. A visual poem, trying to capture the poetics of a cinematic rain shower into the structure of its images. Still images from the 1982 science fiction film noir classic Blade Runner become animated, a frozen memory of two lovers is washed away in time.

After an exhausting rainy day, a young woman is struggling with her growingly overwhelming feelings. Initially, she has difficulties allowing her tears and fights actively against them. She desperately tries to keep out the rain, which more and more vehemently makes its way into her apartment. Yet as soon as she learns to accept and appreciate the rain, she also makes peace with crying.
