In the trilogy ‘Rain, Sugar, Eye’ thoughts are captured and made visible. Each film is made in one single shot; in which a total shot slowly changes into a close-up. The leading characters in ‘Rain’, ‘Sugar’ and ‘Eye’ are focusing on a detail. Literally seeing another world in this detail causes a fundamental change of their ideas about this reality. In ‘Eye' a man and a woman look each other so profoundly in the eyes that they experience the impossibility of a symbiosis.
