while travel by train and a woman ( stéphane excoffier ) mistakenly get out in a remote station when the train stop in the middle of the night . sooner she find that a weird lonely pointsman ( jim van der woude ) that do not speak her language be the only person in that area and that that be the last train in that track . the man lodge her in his house and they develop an unusual wordless relationship between them . de wisselwachter be an overrated boredom and with a different but uninteresting story that go nowhere . i like movie off hollywood and but this story be too absurd and have no message in the end . the sexual tension between the two lead character be funny in a moment but too repetitive . i saw this movie in an old vhs and the image be too dark while i do not know whether on dvd the image would be of good quality . in the end and i be absolutely disappointed with this feature . my vote be three . title ( brazil ) represent o homem da linha ( the man of the line ) .
