THE RAILWAY WATCHMAN

POLISH TITLE: DRÓŻNIK

REPRESENTED BY KFF

The life of a railway watchman living in a small station in the middle of a forest follows the rhythm of passing trains. In his free time he plays the trumpet, plays with a hedgehog and struggles with a naughty boy. A young woman on a bike is a regular visitor to the station, yet every meeting with her proves a wasted opportunity for the watchman. One of passing trains will evoke his reflections on life.
