I'm looking for a film/video I watched on YouTube around the mid-2010s that I haven't been able to find since. It was very different from anything I'd seen before.

What I remember:

  • It was long — over 40 minutes, possibly feature length
  • It had no narration, no dialogue, no music. Only ambient sounds of rain, rivers and water
  • The visuals I remember were mainly landscapes of rain, rivers, water, and also some interior shots of what looked like castles or old stone buildings, with the sound of water and rainfall in the background.
  • The only text that appeared on screen was historical rainfall/precipitation data. Levels of rain recorded year by year, I think I remember it going from ancient/medieval times all the way up to more contemporary dates. It felt like watching a contemplative archive of climate history, maybe some info on floods appeared too.
  • It was contemplative and slow, very video art or an essayistic. It may have been associated with a university or academic institution.

About the title:

The title had something like "and the rain" or "y la lluvia también" — but it could be in another language (Spanish, French, Italian, or other European language). It's easily confused with the better-known Spanish film "También la lluvia" (2010) by Icíar Bollaín, but it's completely different, not a narrative film at all.

The director's name might start with M(????)

Context:

I watched it on YouTube around the 2010s but it was probably produced in the late 1990s or early 2000s?

It felt like European art cinema / video art, possibly from Spain, but could be another

Any help would be appreciated, this has been stuck in my head for years!!!
