The protagonist of the video (the artist herself) is armed with a water pistol and ‘shoots’ it into the sky on a rainy day. The act of rebelling against god with only a child's toy, ostensibly challenging him, is deliberately paradoxical and underlines the implicit failure: a strong statement about not accepting given rules, including the force of gravity, and a poetical defiance concerning one's place in this world.
