Goodbye!



Well, that's it. After almost 80 days and 80 nights on our Occident-Express, we feel As If we haven't slept for the last two months (which is partly not that false); we spent Seven wonderful days in Zagreb and are just happy that we didn't end up like the Titanik Orkestra.

Sunday, we had the last performance on the Orientexpress. For the last time, the train entered the harbour of Stuttgart, the lights dimmed, Fatih opened the hydraulic stage, the train whistled and the German ensemble started their performance.

After the show, we had one of these unforgettable parties in the dining car, with Turkish music, Raki and Slivovic. Now, the train's on the way home again; what is left are good memories, a slightly expanded phone bill - and about a hundert hours of filmmaterial. Our documentary film will be ready by the end of this year and broadcastet on the German tv channel "Theaterkanal". For further information about our film, You may subscribe to our newsletter. (And don't worry: we won't spread Your email-adress or sell it to anybody)

So, that's the last blog. For two months we made this blog, with a movie clip every day, which was a very interesting (and pretty exhausting) experience to us filmmakers, as we normally don't work on a daily basis.

Now, we just want to do two things: sleep and say thank You. Dear technicians, actors, crew-members, organizers: Tesekkür ederim, Multumesc, Hvala and Danke to everybody who was on the Orient Express, we will never forget You. See You!
