Synopsis
Filmed over three years on China’s railways, the film traces the vast interiors of a country on the move: flesh and metal, clangs and squeals, light and dark, language and gesture. Capturing the thrills and anxieties of social and technological transformation, the film immerses audiences in what will soon be the world’s largest railway network.
