Curator's Note
Rainy nights are made for mysteries that do not rush toward answers. Wet streets, closed motels, foggy roads, cold suburbs, and people trapped by old cases make secrets feel less like sudden twists than moisture gathering on every detail. In these films, unease often comes from the place itself: somewhere too cold, too damp, too quiet, where everyone seems to be hiding something.
