"ACID RAIN" is a story about an unusual meeting somewhere in Eastern Europe. A young girl runs away from home, far from her depressing hometown. Her early enthusiasm about the hitch-hike fades when she finds herself in city outskirts in the middle of the night. At a bridge she meets a figure balancing unsafely on the rail. That’s how she meets Skinny – a kind of unstable weirdo. Skinny lives in a camping van, which he uses to run his not-so-legal job errands. Together with him she sets on a journey with no destination. As the ride continues a particular affection grows between the two.
