A movingly tragic road movie, telling the story of Mika, a middle-aged woman with hard life, who escapes the prison train as the film opens. She wants to start a new life but keeps suffering. Later she refuses even the chance to be happy, thus causing a tragedy herself. The trains in the film's title symbolise constant movement, journey and searching; they are the key factor both in the opening and the closing of the film. (Summer Film School)
