'When Rain Clouds Gather' is a drama with multiple players.
The plot was character driven, as it explores the politics of a small village in Botswana. Thus, the narration feels like a camera that follows a character and then, finds a new subject to follow.
However, there were some parts that weren't that interesting, but the ending was pretty intense, with a last chapter full of emotion.
