„I once asked my mother at what age she felt she had become a proper adult.“
 
Cloud Chamber is a story full of doubt, confusion and struggle for adulthood. In search of answers to questions that are devoid of satisfactory solutions. A heartfelt attempt to find courage, kindness and acceptance in a world where decency has grown so thin.
 
As cosmic radiation ricochets around us at 300,000 kilometers per hour, materializing in streaks and dashes in the evaporated alcohol of a Cloud Chamber, we are reminded of the countless people and lives around us that pass by invisibly and unnoticed. A subtle reminder of the complexity and vastness we try to navigate in our daily lives.
 
Is it not the endeavor, rather than the presentation of solutions, that constitutes most any story of coming of age?
