At
the threshold of human extinction, a small group of disoriented
people spend their time in absurd activities inside a house regularly
battered by planetary climate change. Within such an unstable
situation, and trying to provide a measure of normality, they develop
their own strange belief systems and routines. One man builds a
network of wires. Another keeps himself attached to a plant. A woman
is constantly recording sounds, but why and for whom? A dark humour
arises from the gradual decay of reason.
The title is
borrowed from the Germanic folk art tradition of building humidity
meters in the form of small, handcrafted houses, with figures that
emerge according to specific weather predictions. The film presents a
life-size adaptation of this idea. Told with minimalism and humor,
“Weather House” is ultimately as dark, strange,and unpredictable
as the weather itself.
"Mysterious and mesmerizing,
Weather House turns the end of the world into fine art." -
