The Bus Trip

Running time: 13'40”

Production: SE 2016

Sarah is a young director and has just been invited to a film festival that will present her film. The girl goes on an unforgettable bus trip, hoping for exciting political discussions and friendship. The conversations, however, are cut short whenever the protagonist brings up the occupation of Palestine. She then decides to talk with her dead father through a particularly noisy phone line. “The Bus Trip” is an exceptional motion picture that splendidly combines documentary and animated sequences.
