The borrowed umbrella route: One umbrella travels back through real rainy days to the person who kept passing it on.

How this story feels

You lent your umbrella when someone was standing in the rain. After that it went from hand to hand. Now everyone it helped brings it back to you, with their stories.

An illustration of your film story

Your film story

  • After the rain the closed umbrella lies in the courtyard. A photo of it being handed over at the front door and of the wet way home recalls how it all began.

  • On another rainy day the same umbrella is passed on again. Everyone tells when and why they got it, and the scratches on the handle are part of it.

  • Everyone brings the umbrella back to its owner together. In the sunshine they open it once more, just for fun.
