The Umbrella
Claire Ledru
The earth is eroded by an incessant rain, its matter collapses, nothing remains of the landscape except a long field and narrow pillars rising against an immense sky. On one of these islands a survivor stands motionless, clinging to his umbrella, his only weapon against the deluge. It is in the narrow confines of this tiny stage that individuals will be forced to live one on top of the other.
This short film has been part of the programme Shorts: The Memory of Water at the Movies that Matter Festival 2023, curated in collaboration with Go Short - International Short Film Festival Nijmegen.
