Logline

In "In Europe" we cross Europe chronologically. The timeline being his navigator, Mak starts off in 1900 and ends in the present. Geographically his journey follows a more twisted maze of routes. It is his personal style of narration that will lead us on that journey, guide us trough time and space, a combination of roadmovie and historical fieldtrip. This whole journey is to last a year, thus experiencing Europe in all its seasons.
