On a rainy winter morning in a train station two men die mysteriously. One falls on the tracks as the train is in motion, and the other collapses on the pier. A reporter, on his way to a press conference, forgets all about it and focuses on the tragic event. He addresses to five eyewitnesses: the gentleman with the newspaper, the engine driver, the enigmatic woman with beautiful eyes and to a young couple. Their testimonies not only seem to vary, but each time, after the persistent questions of the journalist, the angle of each witness changes dramatically. The strange end of the deceased, as well as their lives, become either a love story or a story of revenge, jealousy, envy or affection all leading to a frenzied, philosophical pursuit with existential implications.
What really happened? Suicide, accident or murder?
A mysterious and atmospheric book, a “literary moment” at the train station.
