convergence point of all tangents. literally one of the most interesting places. confined into a incredibly dense space. more films about transportation hubs please../. there should be a billion of them. less of a traditional documentary and more of a collection of everyday vignettes slightly beautified made to be a romantic little memory. would love to see one from the turn of the millennium about the old eurostar terminal!
