About This Movie
Der Zug der Zeit is a curious documentary that explores the intercity train system of the Deutsche Bundesbahn in the mid-80s. It’s not just a dry presentation; there's a unique charm in how it captures the essence of train travel during that era. The pacing feels almost meditative, letting you soak in the sights and sounds of trains gliding through the German landscape. The practical effects are mostly just the everyday motion of trains, but there's something concrete about it—like you can almost feel the rumble beneath your feet. Although the director remains unknown, the film has this earnestness in showcasing the pride of German railways. A good watch for those who appreciate the artistry behind transportation as a cultural phenomenon.
