The Train at 5pm
DirectorJonah McLachlan
“A young man, who is soon to be a father, is nervous and finds solace in returning to his old childhood home, where fond memories of him and his own father spring to life and hopefully provide him with clarity, amongst his whirlwind of worries.”
The Train at 5pm is a cinematic drama that tells the tale of a young man named Thomas who is nervous about soon becoming a father. When his mother asks him to help move boxes from his childhood home, he finds solace in reliving and interacting with his fondest memories. These nostalgic visions not only act as a reminder to Thomas about how precious time is, but they deeply confront him about the relationship he shared with his own father. Through this Thomas learns the values and efforts it takes to be a strong father for his soon to be born son.
