A drop of dew fell into the blue forest. She chased her own shadow, which had turned into a fish, from the vibrant water source to the wasteland without grass.

REVIEWS:

It’s weird, but beautiful! I didn’t get the full meaning, but the visuals kept me watching. The dew drop looked so soft and innocent, like something from a dream.

Alessandro Soldi

The motion of the dew and the organic morphing shapes are incredibly fluid. It’s deceptively simple — the timing and transitions are masterful. It’s hard to pull off something this soft and intentional.

Andrés Alvares

A very sweet and beautiful film with amazing music, imagery, colors, and flow. It felt like someone touched the soul with gentleness, love, and serenity. Thank you!

Live Screenings Attendee

‘A Drop of Dew’ is a delicately paced meditation on selfhood and transience. Its commitment to abstraction and lyrical motion makes it a standout in the experimental category. Lu Ren’s control of visual rhythm is exceptional.

Gaspar Lombardo

The dew drop falling into the forest feels like a metaphor for being born into a chaotic world. Chasing your shadow — the eternal quest of understanding who you are. The silence says more than words ever could.
