Daily life in a third-class sleeping car in the Trans-Siberian train Vostok no. 20. In the small, uncomfortable carriage, people share meals and conversations with strangers to kill time.
A long trip and a portrait of contemporary Russia, its four seasons and seven time zones passing before our eyes. As a literary counterpoint, poems by Marina Tsvetaeva read by Fanny Ardant illuminate the feelings of the passengers: their loneliness, their longing for freedom and love.
