Europe Endless

Thomas Elley / Denmark / 2025 / World Premiere / 26 min

Thomas Elley made a name for himself with his two graduation films from the Danish Film School last year. ‘Europe Endless’ adds another chapter to Elleys’ mapping of masculinity in crisis on the margins of society. Here, we meet a Bulgarian truck driver who lives and works in Denmark, but spends most of his life on the lonely European highways. Driven by a sudden impulse, he travels back to his hometown and for two days he drifts around, visiting friends and family from his past while contemplating his future. The angle is uncompromisingly realistic, but Elley is also a sharp stylist with a rare ability to mix formats and idioms in new and unexpected ways.
