Rain
Brimming with impressionistic, poetic images, Joris Ivens and Mannus Franken's "Rain" is a lyrical example of an urban symphony. The short film is composed of highly artistic photographs that capture the transformation of the bustling cityscape and the effects of the natural phenomenon before, during, and after the sudden rain shower in Amsterdam. Accompanied by the score of Lou Lichtveld, the film depicts the play of light and shadow on the urban surfaces, the trams, the canals, and the crowd. Written by Nick Riganas
