Trans Europe
Sunday 27 May 2007
ABC Radio 8.35PM

Transcend Europe's real and imagined boundaries in a program which crosses a series of bridges to evoke an always connected landscape.

How have these bridges - which link histories, cultures, identities - been maintained for so long? What's lost in translation between languages and time zones? What exists between three generations of women living worlds apart? Travel with us through Trans Europe in The Night Air.
