Plot synopsis
The train is a small country. There are retirees and babies, hard workers and cultured students. The poorest are in the common carriages with wooden benches, the richest in closed compartments far from the mass of people. But everyone is locked in the narrow iron gut of the train where life is nothing but a long wait. When will they finally arrive? Where? In March 2019, two students from the journalism faculty of Novosibirsk University, Oleg Tsiplakov and Nikita Lopatine, traveled from Moscow to Vladivostok on the famous Trans-Siberian Railway. 6 days and 6 nights of travel. 9,000 kilometers and 15 interviews with passengers of the E100 train, all to understand who they live with in the same country and what this country looks like.
