Plot:
Set amid the immense transformation of early 20th-century America, Train Dreams follows Robert Grainier, a logger and railroad worker whose solitary life unfolds against the shifting wilderness and the relentless advance of modernity. Through Edgerton’s moving, introspective performance, the film captures the soul of a man bound to both the rails and the land, haunted by memory and time.
Train Dreams is screening as part of the 2025 London Film Festival. Find out more and book your tickets here: https://whatson.bfi.org.uk/lff/
