Vienne–Kyiv, la guerre, le retour
Gare de Budapest Keleti. Le train Vienne–Kiev marque l'arrêt pour embarquer ses voyageurs. Derrière la vitre d'un wagon-lit des chemins de fer ukrainiens (UZ), comme le proclame la caisse bleu et or, une femme attend le départ. Une inconnue. Elle rentre : vers un pays en guerre.
Son visage grave, cadré comme celui d'une icône, lui donne l'allure d'une madone, ou d'une voyageuse à l’air de sainte. La paroi qui la sépare du quai est une frontière : dehors, le monde froid et la dure réalité ; dedans, un fragile cocon de lumière chaude. Entre les deux, le verre, terni par le film pare-éclats que l'Ukraine applique désormais sur ses trains, pour retenir les débris quand l'onde de choc frappe. On la voit à travers ce voile, obscurément.
À la frontière, le convoi changera de pieds : les voitures seront soulevées, leurs bogies à voie normale échangés contre des bogies à voie large. Pour rentrer chez elle, le train doit d'abord se déchausser du monde qu'il quitte.

Vienna–Kyiv: War, and the Way Home
Budapest Keleti station. The Vienna–Kyiv train pauses to take on passengers. Behind the window of a Ukrainian Railways sleeping car (UZ), as the blue and gold bodywork proclaims, a woman waits for departure. A stranger. She is going home, to a country at war.
Her grave face, framed like an icon, gives her the bearing of a madonna, or of a traveller with the air of a saint. The wall that divides her from the platform is a border: outside, the cold world and its hard reality; inside, a fragile cocoon of warm light. Between them, the glass, clouded by the anti-shatter film that Ukraine now applies to its trains to hold the fragments when the blast wave strikes. We see her through that veil, darkly.
At the border, the train will change its feet: the carriages are lifted, their standard-gauge bogies swapped for broad-gauge ones. To carry her home, it must first shed the shoes of the world it is leaving behind.
