The deserts of Namibia are among the driest places
on the face of the earth, yet life marches on. Last Year's
Rain shows the harshness of life in this isolated but beautiful
area from a variety of perspectives: a man who dreams of living
in a big house with a swimming pool; a business owner who is
trying to build up a tourist industry to help his tribe and country;
a tribe elder who worries about the drought; and people who reminisce
about the day, last year, when the rain came and fell for an
entire day. This film highlights how many of us take for granted
this vital resource.
