Dancing in the Rain (film)

Ples v dežju is a 1961 Slovene film directed by Boštjan Hladnik. Its international English title is Dance in the Rain. It is a love drama based on the novel Črni dnevi in beli dan by Dominik Smole.

Ples v dežju is Hladnik's first feature film after he returned from Paris, where he worked with Claude Chabrol, Robert Siodmak & Philippe de Broca. It is considered the first Slovenian film noir.

On the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of Slovene film in 2005, Slovene film critics of various generations chose Ples v dežju as the best Slovene film. The Film Fund of the Republic of Slovenia thus funded its DVD release to in honour this anniversary. It was the first Slovene film to have its image and sound digitally corrected. A discussion with Boštjan Hladnik was filmed especially for this edition. The director also participated in the choice of other materials included on the DVD: film trailers, excerpts from Enfant Terrible (1993) - the documentary portrait of Boštjan Hladnik directed by Damjan Kozole, excerpts from the television show Povečava ("Magnification", 1991) directed by Franci Slak, and excerpts from the documentary portrait of the actor Miha Baloh (1998) directed by Slavko Hren. Apart from Slovene, it has subtitles in six languages: English, German, French, Italian, Serbian (Cyrillic) and Croatian.
