Directed by Siegfried A. Fruhauf

Synopsis

In the early days of cinema “phantom rides” were films shot from the front of moving trains. Siegfried A. Fruhauf explores the underlying sensation, the “phantom”, in these movements, visually inspired by Ken Jacobs’ found-footage film Georgetown Loop that is based on a phantom ride scene from 1903.
