Italia. Salento. Venti personaggi fuori dall’ordinario percorrono la provincia di Lecce a bordo dei treni delle sud-est, la ferrovia locale ormai quasi in disuso. Tre giorni di vite, racconti, speranze. Un affresco corale e onirico lungo la storia e i luoghi di una terra in perenne transito, in un viaggio delirante e poetico tra modernità e tradizioni, nord e sud, realtà e finzione.

“An unclassifiable, indispensable, unpredictable and unmissable movie. One of the craziest and most enlightening movies in these lukewarm times”

Fabio Ferzetti (Il Messagero)

“The mythical Sud-Est railway, a ghost-like rail-cruiser, circular presence equal to the baroque spirals and merry-go-rounds. The important thing is the arrival of a convoy of trucks to install the playground. This is exactly what Fluid Video Crew did, putting in motion a structure on which you can hop on-and-off and run from one game to the other. Euphoria and melancholy.”

Silvana Silvestri (Il Manifesto)
