AAA Cargo

Part-fiction documentary into the New Silk Road. AAA Cargo traces the anticipation of infrastructure and trade on a planetary scale, following its distribution networks which are expanding across vast regions between China and Europe. Here, government efforts to speed up the movement of trade collide with more-than-human choreographies of sand, people and goods.


A film by Solveig Suess, script in collaboration with Ming Lin, sound design by Josh Feola, featuring Ravi Sundaram, Charmaine Chua and Rune Reyhé among others.

A graduate of the Centre for Research Architecture, Goldsmiths and Strelka Institute, Moscow.
