"Le train en marche", gives us an intimate insight of Medvedkin's experience with the CineTrain in Russia during the 1930's. Marker achieves once more to delight the audience of this short documentary through a delicate selection of pictures, music and contents. It is mentioned in the movie that of all arts, cinema is the most important. Even though this claiming may be questionable it is undoubtedly that cinema can be much more than a simple element of entertainment becoming an effective tool of education when in the right hands. The movie also refreshingly reminds us of how youth and romanticism can act as the main strength for those who believe that a different/better world is possible.

On October 21, 1967, over 100,000 protestors gathered in Washington, D.C., for the Mobilization to End the War in Vietnam. It was the largest protest gathering yet, and it brought together a wide cross-section of liberals, radicals, hippies, and Yippies. Che Guevara had been killed in Bolivia only two weeks previously, and, for many, it was the transition from simply marching against the war, to taking direct action to try to stop the 'American war machine.' Norman Mailer wrote about the events in Armies of the Night. French filmmaker Chris Marker, leading a team of filmmakers, was also there.
