Trabant on the Silky Road (2009) 12

Czech Republic | 2009 | 57 min.

In July 2007, a three-member Trabant Silk Road expedition went to the deserts of Central Asia. The odometer on the small yellow Trabant turns fifteen thousand kilometers. Half of Europe and most of Central Asia have passed beneath its wheels. After six weeks spent in a confined space, the three travelers go together across Central Europe, the Balkans, Turkey, Iran, and Turkmenistan to make their way back to Samarkand in Uzbekistan and then home via Kazakhstan, Russia and Ukraine. 15,000 kilometers is a very long journey.
