Still from new Pixar short The Blue Umbrella

It is just another evening commute until the rain starts to fall, and the city comes alive to the sound of dripping rain pipes, whistling awnings and gurgling gutters. And in the midst, two umbrellas — one blue, one not — fall eternally in love.

The short is also now confirmed to be playing before Monsters University in theaters this summer.
