Aqueronte

Synopsis

On board a ferry, a series of passengers cross a river from one riverbank to the other. Some of the travelers chat, perhaps to liven up the voyage and speed up time. Some others wrap themselves in silence and observe the unfamiliar fellow travelers or contemplate the scenery. The journey on the waters seems to expand, the destination shore is unexpectedly postponed, the magnitude of space is blurred.
