Flat lands, windmills against the sunset. A valley, a slow ride along the bends of the river. People on platforms waiting or waving. School-classes on a trip to the city, tourists staring up the height of the cathedral. Chairs in an antique shop, statues overlooking the squares and parks, leaves floating in the wind.
It is November, on a route Berlin – Köln – Bruxelles – London.
Images appear, thoughts, feelings, one thing follows another. The spectator shares the passion for travelling and lingering. Time and again the voyager interrupts the journey, roaming around the cities, discovering slowness.
A spontaneous, handheld camera, grainy black-and-white, occasional laconic comments, and an atmospheric score give the film its style and quality.
„Journey On A Train“ is not only a documentation, a résumé of a journey. The view, the camera traces the particular of the everyday. It is a personal, passionate film.
