TRAINS

Maciej J. Drygas, 2024, 80 min.

Trains is a documentary crafted entirely of archival footage and sound design, offering a powerful portrait of the 20th century. Locomotives become vessels of both hope and hardship—carrying workers, migrants, and families in pursuit of better lives, as well as soldiers, refugees, and victims of war. Everyday moments are interwoven with scenes of turmoil and tragedy, revealing the train as a poignant metaphor for the human journey. Through the artistry of cinema, director Maciej Drygas captures the rhythms of life—its aspirations, its displacements, and the inexorable passage of time.

Post-screening discussion with director Maciej J. Drygas and movie critic and author, Graham Fuller
