This is a hand-drawn animation depicting a moment of human behavior in the rain, in a simple, monochromatic style. A person on the horizon, the umbrella that person opens, a manual zoom-in, then the tip of the umbrella transforms into another person on the horizon. These people, drawn in a flowing style, eventually melt like liquid, mix together, then retake the form of humans. Although rain is never actually depicted, this is a piece in which we can experience the bodily sensation of a rainy day in poetic form.
