Synopsis
Slightly meteorological film about creating, behaving and blustering of clouds, about how the invisible (e.g. water in atmosphere) can become visible and in what way formating of ideas is similar to that of clouds. Also a painter and a physicist participate, to talk about elements (the first one) and colours (the latter one).
Film, that works with unique images of clouds, introduces metheorologists (who talk about creation and behavior of clouds and about a storm) and different people who have worked with clouds in some outstanding way – physicist Richard Feynman (who is an author of the biggest artificial cloud in the world – during testing the atomic bomb), painter Kazimir Malevich (suprematist, who adored abstract qualities of the visible), poet Sylvia Plath (who used clouds in her poems in a rare non-pathetic way), director Sergei Eisenstein (who found out that effect of flash can “give” a motion to motionless things) etc. In the film, also philosopher and biologist talk – they try to use a cloud as a metaphor of thought, they think about the similarities between the both. The whole story of the film starts with creation of the cloud, observes its existence, its blustering and finally peaceful white-blue sky – in the same time it is a story about creation of a thought, about its growing and clearing, than the conflict (a storm) comes and finally it either stands or disappears.
Department of documentary film, FAMU-bachelor degree film.
