A TRAIN IN THE NIGHT
WINTER FALLS ON TWO PEOPLE
LIGHT REVEALS DARKNESSDirector Can Isik came up with this visual interpretation of the song during one of his many stays in Japan. On three narrative levels connected to the lines of the haiku poem the film tells the plot of two low-spirited characters roaming Tokyo's night simultaneously with the same sinister goal. Guided by a mysterious light and facing the menace of an approaching train they are striving to encounter their salvation in the deepest darkness of fate.
Während einem seiner zahlreichen Japanaufenthalte enwickelte Regisseur Can Isik diese Idee für die visuelle Umsetzung des Songs. Auf drei narrativen Ebenen, die mit den Zeilen des Haiku-Gedichts verbunden sind, erzählt der Film die Geschichte von zwei niedergeschlagenen Charakteren, die simultan und mit dem gleichen finsteren Ziel die Nacht in Tokio durchstreifen. Von einem mysteriösen Licht geleitet und im Angesicht eines Zugs, der sich bedrohlich nähert, ringen sie der Erlösung in der tiefsten Dunkelheitihrer Bestimmung entgegen.
