Country: UK, GFR
Year: 1980
Duration: 102'
A mysterious death becomes the starting
point for a lonely car journey through
England. The only company is provided
by the music coming from the radio,
the jukebox and the speakers. Bowie and
the Kraftwerk, the Devo and Lene Lovich.
A road movie in black and white inspired
by Kings of the Road, desperately
melancholic, with no way out. Unless
it is a final train getaway.
