ROUTES - A Visual Journey Throughout The Silk Road

ROUTES - A Visual Journey Throughout The Silk Road ROUTES is an art/documentary film about an overland journey from Istanbul to Beijing. The film aims to visually focus on the present of the Silk Road and on the traces of its recent political past. The authors’ visual biography of the Silk Road is made through the stark observation of both ordinary and uncommon places, chosen along the journey, such as cemeteries, stations, borders, modern urban dwellings, roads and peripheral spaces.
