Synopsis:
The World’s Most Famous Train explores the story and cultural impact of the Orient Express, the legendary railway service that transformed travel at the turn of the 20th century. More than transportation, the train became a moving stage for diplomats, artists, aristocrats and spies, linking Paris to Istanbul across a changing Europe.

Through archival footage, expert insights and historical reconstruction, the documentary traces the rise of the Orient Express as a symbol of modernity, elegance and international connection. It examines how the train mirrored political upheaval, shifting borders and the golden age of rail, while securing its place in literature, cinema and popular imagination.

A portrait of a machine that became a myth — and of how railways shaped the modern idea of travel itself.
