Contents/Summary

Summary
They say that it brings bad luck to travel on New Year’s Eve. Ignoring the rule, the two film directors decide to spend the night between the years in the train, crossing the country in search of people with interesting stories to tell. Among the people singing and dancing or the surfeited employees of the Railway Company, the film highlights and focuses on a few subjects: an old lady going to the funeral of her sister-in-law, an Adventist, a young woman who left her husband and is looking for shelter in her parents’ house, an elder man looking for his fifth wife who suddenly confesses of having killed a woman with his bare hands, or a timid young man, dreaming of finding a companion for life.
