- ANTWERP CENTRAL takes the viewer on a journey through the physical and mental space of Antwerp's railway cathedral, from its construction to the present day. Drawing inspiration from the book "Austerlitz" by W.G. Sebald, screenwriter/director Peter Krüger approaches Antwerp Central Railway Station as a magical realistic location where present and past, history and daily life, fiction and reality are in constant flux. Running as a thread through the film are the dreams and reminiscences of a traveler, played by Johan Leysen, who arrives at Antwerp Central and through whose eyes we observe the station. He draws our attention not only to the striking architecture and historical context of the building, but also to its hidden and mysterious aspects. A peacock spreads its wings; time stands still; a lion roams the grand waiting hall; an old steam loc enters the station; a choir performs on the monumental staircase leading to the platforms - Reality turns to dream and vice versa. But what is reality? And what is dream? Is time not more than the transformation of space?
- Joe and Katherine Parkinson explore Antwerp by hitting a golf ball around it, before they sample the local beer, have breakfast in a launderette and journey down into the subterranean tunnels.
- 2018–7.0 (6)TV EpisodeAntwerpen Centraal is a jewel in the "city of diamonds". Its gigantic dome reminds of the Pantheon in Rome. That is why it is named railway cathedral by the residents of the city. It is no coincidence that the palatial building was considered as the stony manifestation of the emerging colonial power. Even if King Leopold II referred to it as a "petite belle gare" ("a beautiful small station"). Wall to wall with the station lies Antwerp's green heart - the Zoological garden. Here the Okapis bear testimony to the claim of the Belgian Kingdom to be a world empire. In the 19th century one could admire here the first giraffes in Europe, brought from Congo through the Antwerp harbor, the elderly counterpart of the train station. Ships of big companies like Hapag Lloyd and Red Star Line used to anchor here. Around two million Europeans sailed away by the turn of the the 19th century, the new promised land, America. Antwerp has always been proud of its railway station. Author and director Jeremy JP Fekete is exploring the indivisible connection between the station and the city residents. He tells beautiful anecdotes, from the timid kiss of their first love on the station benches to the loss of a beloved teddy bear in the bustle of jostling travelers. While most of the people are just passengers, some Antwerpeners stay close to it their entire life, like the Jewish diamond manufacturers. That's is why this part of the city is called the "Jerusalem of the North". And that is why Antwerp is also called "City of the shining stones".
