Rain in 2020 is a contemplative piece, really draws you into the life of Ah-Tian and his family over those seven years. The pacing feels almost meditative, reflecting the slow, grinding changes in Myanmar itself. It's not just about the jade mines, though those scenes are striking, showing the harsh realities of that work. The rains serve as a powerful motif, connecting Ah-Tian's journey back home with the cyclical nature of life and duty. The cinematography captures the lush landscapes contrasted with the starkness of the mines, creating an atmosphere that's both beautiful and haunting. And the performances feel genuine, almost like you're intruding on their lives. It’s distinctive in its quiet storytelling, a real slice-of-life documentary that lingers in your mind.
