    • Synopsis
    • Once a year, a very special train sets off on a journey through the Romanian countryside. Thousands of people gather along its route to enthusiastically greet and cheer some of the descendants of the last King of Romania travelling in those historic carriages.
      The documentary The Royal Train – A journey through Romania highlights the backdrop for this nostalgic journey and uses the train journey as the starting point for a cinematic expedition into both the past and the present of this East European state: Of high-profile royalist presentation in a post-communist republic.
