From the composition’s viewpoint, the film is based on a journey, where the arrival station is the same as departure. The movie begins in the moment when a person gets in the train to emigrate abroad. Through monologues and dialogues with other passengers, we discover the lack of orientation of the personages, who allusively hope to find themselves and their happiness by geographical displacement. But they often realize that the arrival station is nothing but the departure station. The soundtrack of the movie, from the beginning to the end, is the monotone sound of a train, time by time interrupted by the train siren, which plays the role of orthographic points in the movie. |
