最后一站

　　想象一个地处东欧腹地的小村子，一个多世纪以来，它的国籍就像四季一样变换着：最初，它属于哈布斯堡帝国，然后是捷克斯洛伐克，然后是匈牙利，再然后是苏联。近年来，事情变得更加复杂。二战末期，苏联在划定边界时将Szeimenc(人口1100)村划在了两个不同的国家。一边的人们住在斯洛伐克，现在是欧盟的一员；而他们的亲人却在政治经济都不稳定的乌克兰那边艰难地生活。有一个办法就是建一条越境通道，使这些家庭能在分离60年后重聚，并带动经济的发展。影片是以大小Szeimenc村的两位村长2004前往华盛顿的旅行开始的，他们在那里敦促国际人权连线建立一条越境通道。两年后，这条通道建成了，但谁又真正从中获益了呢？

　　The Last Bus Stop
　　Imagine a village somewhere deep in Eastern Europe. For more than a
　　century, its nationality has changed in a season-like cadenza: first
　　it belonged to the Hapsburg Empire, then to Czechoslovakia, next to
　　Hungary, then to the Soviet Union. In recent years, things have grown
　　even more complex. At the end of World War II, the Russians
　　established a border that divided the village of Szelmenc (population
　　1,100) over two separate countries. Families on one side live in
　　Slovakia, which is now a member of the European Union. On the other
　　side, their relatives suffer from the unstable political and economic
　　circumstances in Ukraine. One solution would be to build a
　　border-crossing, to reunite families after 60 years and to generate
　　some economic structure. The film starts with the trip that the mayors
　　of Little Szelmenc and Great Szelmenc made to Washington in 2004,
　　where they urged the necessity of constructing a border-crossing at
　　the congressional Human Rights Caucus. Two years later, it was built –
　　but who is actually benefiting from it?
