La Voie normale est un documentaire tunisien réalisé par Erige Sehiri, sorti en salle en Tunisie le 27 mars 2019 et qui traite d'une ligne ferroviaire de l'ouest de la Tunisie. La ligne de Djedeida à Bizerte est la première ligne ferroviaire à voie normale (selon l'écartement standard des rails), mais aussi l'une des moins bien entretenues de la Société nationale des chemins de fer tunisiens (SNCFT).

Synopsis

Cheminot et petit-fils de cheminot, Ahmed est tiraillé entre ses aspirations personnelles et sa loyauté à l'égard de la SNCFT. Son collègue Fitati s'obstine à documenter les défaillances du chemin de fer au risque de tout perdre.

The film follows the preparation behind the service, as well as focusing on one particular journey. The 'star' of the film is the Gresley A4 60017 Silver Fox, although the film makes a point of featuring many railway employees, for example the maintenance men, the driver and fireman and the station master at Waverley Station "who has a very high sense of occasion". The train completes its journey in its timetabled 6hrs 30mins.

Taken for a Ride begins with interviews on the inefficiencies and congestion on Los Angeles' highways. Next, the film displays a variety of archival footage on streetcar systems around the United States, demonstrating that streetcars were a widespread and efficient means of transportation. The film continues into a description of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy, starting with a history of National City Lines and Pacific City Lines and General Motors' investment in both companies. The film builds the argument that streetcar systems purchased by these companies were deliberately sabotaged through service reductions and fare increases, then replaced with profitable, less convenient, bus systems. Next, the film makes a connection between this conspiracy and the construction of the Interstate Highway System and the suburbanization of America in the face of the Highway revolts in the 1960s and 1970s. The film ends with footage of the reduction of Philadelphia's trolleybus system at the time of filming.
