For three periods of one month, Bieke Depoorter has let the Trans-Siberian train guide her alongside forgotten villages, from living room to living room. Some Russian words, scribbled on a little piece of paper, allowed her to be welcomed and absorbed in the warm chaos of a family. Accidental encounters led her to the places where she could sleep. The living room, the epicenter of their life, establishes an intimate contact between the Russian inhabitants.
For a brief moment, Depoorter was part of this. Their couch became her bed for one night.
