Rietumu ekspresis

About This Movie

Rietumu ekspresis has this quirky charm that you don’t see in many animated films. It follows a rather unusual premise where the prime minister hops on this train, and things take a wild turn when the train is left driverless. The tension builds as the Emergency Brigade scrambles into action, and you can feel that mix of urgency and a touch of humor. The animation style feels distinct, with a sort of hand-drawn look that adds a unique character to the visuals. Themes of responsibility and community come through pretty clearly, though it doesn't hit you over the head with them. It’s an interesting watch, definitely stands apart from mainstream animation of the time.
