Made for your memories
Our cardboard city for rainy days
It rains outside, and inside we build cardboard streets again.
You bring the people, pictures and memories. Videomento places them into the chosen film story and carries them towards its personal high point and ending.

How this story feels
It rains outside, and inside a city of cardboard boxes grows. A real childhood memory becomes a game to play together, in which the children may build their own paths.
Your film story
Empty boxes are ready next to the rainy window. An adult draws the street from their own memory, then the boxes get houses, colours and squares.
While building, a question comes up: how does this road fit that house? You find a solution together. An old photo or your memory brings in a detail from back then.
The children add new streets and think up games. You play in the city you built. At the end you see the whole city that grew out of one rainy day.
