Each family has their story, and each one is different, depending on who tells it. Fighting encroaching darkness, Nina picks up a pencil and begins to write. Her deeply personal entries tell a story of love, loss, and learning how to piece it all back together. Weaving her way through past and present, she spins a kaleidoscopic and increasingly fragmented narrative. "I am a person today, but have no idea what will be left of me tomorrow," writes Nina. Both delicate and iridescent, The Smell of Rain is bound to make you think: what happens when the fragile thread of life begins to fray?
