Umbrella

About This Movie

Umbrella (2016) is an intriguing piece of animation that explores a world perpetually drenched in black rain. The atmosphere is dense and almost suffocating, mirroring the monotony of life under constant gloom. There's this pivotal moment when a man discards his umbrella, leading to the emergence of a singular green plant—the only hint of color in a drab existence. It’s fascinating how the narrative delves into themes of desire and desperation as the community becomes fixated on this rare anomaly. The pacing is contemplative, allowing viewers to soak in the unique visuals and the underlying message about nature’s resilience. It's not just about animation; it's about the stark contrasts and the human condition. The visuals are striking, almost poetic.
