SynopsisPeople are hard at work extending the railroad in a remote Georgian mountain village and digging a tunnel right through a mountain where villagers have their fields and pastures. There are promises of prosperity and progress, but the coming of the express train feels more like a nightmare. With the rumbling in the mountain coming ever closer, the villagers look on impotently as the ground fractures and crumbles. Language and communication problems between the Georgian and Chinese workers lead to fierce arguments, and ultimately a tense strike.
