Beyond the Rain

Is there a place where there isn't any trouble?

"Over the Rainbow," famously performed by Judy Garland in the 1939 film "The Wizard of Oz," is one of the most iconic and emotionally resonant songs in cinematic and musical history. The song captures the dreams and yearnings of its protagonist, Dorothy Gale, as she longs for a better world beyond the confines of her grey Kansas existence.

About five minutes into the film Wizard of Oz, Dorothy sings the song after failing to get Aunt Em, Uncle Henry, and the farmhands to listen to her story of an unpleasant incident involving her dog, Toto, and the town spinster, Miss Gulch. Aunt Em tells her to "find yourself a place where you won't get into any trouble". This prompts her to walk off by herself, musing to Toto, "Someplace where there isn't any trouble. Do you suppose there is such a place, Toto? There must be. It's not a place you can get to by a boat, or a train. It's far, far away. Behind the moon, beyond the rain", at which point she begins to sing. 


In this series, the model Ankie searches in rainstorms to find that place, “where dreams do come true”. Eventually she is “beyond the rain” and finds herself “somewhere over the rainbow”.
