description | What does it mean to be part of a desperate crowd of seven million commuters, to whom the journey between home and workplace is a nightmare? Every day, year after year, in Mumbai (Bombay) over 6 million passengers take the suburban train to work and back. Nearly 4000 people die every year in accidents. Many spend nearly 5 hours traveling to and back from work. “Journeys” subtly and pointedly explores universal issues of space and human relations within a very specific environment, Mumbai. |
