Real Life is elsewhere
6.3
“What if to leave was in fact to find oneself? What if to take a train became a journey within oneself? Naples. Berlin. Marseille. Three encounters. What if real life was somewhere else to be found?”
Geneva train station. A woman leaves for Marseilles to give a conference. A man is on his way to Berlin to discover his new born child. A young woman is off to live in Naples. When one person invites itself to take a seat next to someone else, a new reality can start off. Three people meeting, three life stories which switch on the platform of a railway station.
