3 Trains, 24 Cities, 10920 km of railway
Istanbul Express: Exploring Multilingualism across Europe is a filmmaking workshop aiming to explore common issues about languages. Participants aged 18 – 30 will answer these questions in a stimulating atmosphere, far away from clichés and preconceived ideas. They will meet locals from stopover cities, travellers in the train. They will see the cultural differences with their own eyes during these long trips.
