Blue Train

Thirty-year-old Liam, pervaded by a feeling of childhood nostalgia, takes a trip in time, in his phobias and memories, in order to find his true identity and his utopian past. The passengers who visit him whilst on the train of memories are key characters from his life who have played a decisive role in shaping his personality. The train is a non-place, where reality meets fiction. This is a trip towards Liam’s unreachable goal, ending in him embracing himself and his past.
