柏林电影节新生代单元
With the end of school, an exciting time of open horizons begins. The film accompanies a young couple through this phase of life characterised by great upheavals and new freedoms. The conversations in their search for the truth behind their changing feelings for each another are self-critical, gentle and absolute - the film’s soundtrack is volatile and spherically beautiful.

On 25th May 2011 the world renowned Ballet de l'Opéra national de Paris presented Rain, its first ever performance of a choreography by Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker. The filmmakers Olivia Rochette and Gerard-Jan Claes followed the rehearsal process from the auditions to the opening performance. The documentary focuses on how De Keersmaeker and the Rosas dancers convey the dance idiom of the choreographer to the classically trained ballet dancers. The rigidity of ballet gives way to another kind of severity, namely the mathematical pattern of Rain, which, however, conceals a powerful emotional layering. A poetic documentary about searching, looking and hesitating within the walls of the opera.
