This 2015 short film was presented by Dust in 2018.

In a world where the oceans have all dried up, the pilot of a rickety old plane tries to make a single cloud rain, while rival pilots try to collect water directly from the cloud, and try to shoot the rainmaker plane down. That's basically the whole plot, and there's no dialogue, but it's a gripping story with stunning animation and aerial battles. And I really came to care about the main character, despite not really knowing anything about her.
