In this animation, a sudden rainstorm is unleashed on a city. Everyone seeks refuge. Activity slows down and nearly stops. Some pedestrians wait in bus shelters, others are determined to risk it. When the clouds thin out, life continues. The downpour has been a moment's respite in never-ending human busyness. A film without words.
