One Night... a Train
Drama
The Belgian linguistics professor Matthias is going through a difficult period in relations with his girlfriend Anne. She is French, he is Belgian, and, oddly enough for an enlightened Europe and a doubly enlightened university environment, this small difference is a shadow on the couple’s personal life. One day, during a train ride, Anne disappears and Mathias goes looking for her in an unknown city.
VIBE
A quiet, unsettling journey into existential dread. The film feels like a waking dream, where language barriers mirror emotional distance. It’s a contemplative, often lonely experience, exploring the anxieties of connection and the fear of the unknown.
