The animation is constructed from an intimate perspective: liquid textures, flowing strokes, and cadences of sound evocative of rain and thunder. Each shot attempts to capture that moment suspended in the air—a drop that anticipates the storm, a spark that ignites memory. The visual rhythm seeks to reflect Tláloc's duality: generator of life and, at the same time, bearer of fearsome power, reminding us that water is both a source of support and an indomitable force.
As an independent project created entirely by me, every decision—from the character design to the palette and soundtrack—is an act of direct dialogue with ancestral tradition. My purpose is to activate a contemporary perspective on the mythical, to open a bridge between the sacred and the everyday, so that Tláloc's rain may resonate again today: in the fields, on the asphalt, in our emotions.
It's an animated short film where Eli is drawing with her colored pencils in her room. She's feeling bored, since she's living in a new country, with a very different room than the one she used to have. Until she stared at the colored pencil, she had a great idea.
