Alois Nebel

In the fall of 1989, Alois Nebel is a dispatcher at the train station in Bílý Potok, a remote town on the Czechoslovak-Polish border in the former Sudetenland. His only hobby is collecting old timetables. But when the fog settles over the train station, Alois sees trains with ghosts and shadows from Central Europe's dark past: the Second World War, the expulsion of the Germans, the Soviet occupation. Alois Nebel cannot get rid of these nightmares and ends up in a mental hospital. There he meets "the mute", who has been arrested while trying to cross the border. This becomes the involuntary trigger for Alois' decision to take up the fight against the demons that haunt him at night. The film is based on the graphic novel of the same name by Jaromír 99 and Jaroslaw Rudiš.
