9 sequences took at the railway crossing of via Vittorio Emanuele II in Florence (Italy) the 20th May 2008 from 17,51 to 18,04. The sequences are taken with a video camera from a fixed point of view towards only one direction, south, with different sequences. The mic is a micro stereo Sony connected with the camera. The idea was to study the simultaneity of the several plans of the image. The camera is by hand. In the video it does not succeed anything of relevant if not the passage of the unexpected train, the sounds of the motor of the level crossing, some voice or noise. The time is suspended in the recur of the events. Actually the level-crossing no longer exists.
