Letters of the Road is an international documentary film, about two friends who swap countries and write each other letters about their experiences. One friend travels to Kenya and the other travels to Germany. The two friends poetically narrate the lives of John – a bus driver from Nairobi, and Mehmet - a taxi driver from Hamburg. By doing so, they portray how the never ending cycle of movement in our society is universal and that we are supported daily by dedicated individuals behind the wheel.
