The United States of America is the country where dreams often surpass reality. The place where richness and freedom are awaiting, where everybody can become a millionaire, if only opportunities are taken. America has become a second home to millions of immigrants, from former communist Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central and South America, Africa, Vietnam and China. In their countries of origin, they suffered from poverty, political or religious repression, and dreamt about a life in de United States. Now they are Americans, but in their hearts they still feel Iranian, Chinese, Polish, Ukrainian, Ghanaian, Salvadorian or Vietnamese. The Future Express travels with Amtrak across the United States of America, from the densely populated metropolis of New York to Seattle. Stories emerge in the train about what the American dream means these days.
