Official teaser for the warmest comedy of the year, ‘Train to Christmas,’ has been released

The comedy ‘Train to Christmas’ will be released in cinemas on 1 December. A teaser for the film has already been released. Details were announced on Facebook.

The comedy will remind viewers of the traditions of a real Christmas in Ukraine. After watching this film, viewers will effectively say goodbye to the traditions that were forcibly imposed on Ukrainians by Russian occupiers for centuries.

According to the plot of the film, on the eve of Christmas, fate brings together completely different people with their own stories, problems, and dreams on one train journey. Instead of the usual festive table, they have to prepare Christmas Eve dinner in the dining car. Strangers become one big Ukrainian family as they wait for the first star. And that’s when the miracles begin.

Mykhailo Khoma played the train driver. He had to spend four hours on the roof of the locomotive before they shot the scene you see in the teaser. Another hero of the video is a special retro train, which Ukrzaliznytsia runs on the longest narrow-gauge railway in Europe.
