The Dry Spell

Both movies deal around siblings that are being abandoned by their parents and having to survive on their own. The Dry Spell has however a happy ending, whereas Nobody Knows is more sad.

Both films were shot on 35mm, which adds to the 'crispy' feel of the film. There's quite a few scenes were you can really feel the heat radiate off the screen. Many of the central themes like being set in summer, heat, water rationing, absentee parents, and some minor overlap in juvenile delinquency.
