Brzesc – a town on the border between Poland and the former Soviet Union. Due to a difference of dimensions of 89 millimeters of the railway tracks in the Soviet Union and the rest of Europe, Bialorussian workers have to change a few thousands carriage wheels each day to let international trains into the territory of the former Soviet Union.
Passengers from France, Germany, Holland watch it through the train windows... Two separate worlds?
