Le convoi (1995)

Overview

Alone at the wheel of their 38 tons, three men leave for a humanitarian mission to Armenia: Amine, 30 years old, who chose this form of action after having experienced difficult times, "Papy", 62 years old, former director of a transport company, prematurely retired, and Jerome, just out of a tumultuous adolescence. They have to reach Yerevan after several weeks on the road through Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Russia and Georgia and have to face many political, climatic and geographical difficulties. In the course of the obstacles to be overcome, the strong times of friendship or conflict, the empty times of waiting or solitude, in the closed space of the cabins, the face of each one is revealed. Three destinies, three ages of life and, in common, a love of travel and the road. For each one a part of shadow, of drift, of secret.
