The film takes place in the Warsaw Central Station . Above all, it shows different people waiting, people waiting for connections and movement, and can thus also be understood politically.
background
In an interview with Danusia Stok, Kieślowski said: “When I think of Dworzec, I see that there are many images of people like this: someone fell asleep; someone is waiting for someone. Maybe he'll come, maybe not. It's about people like that, people who long for something. The film is not individualized, but that doesn't matter. We made the film to show these people. We spent about ten nights filming them. "
