Barker Street Cinema and Vinyl Deck Studios are pleased to announce the release of a new video and single by William Kuklis called “The Train.” This track will be a part of the soundtrack for the film “Ariel Alpha” currently scheduled to be in production later in 2021. Kuklis has taken his original song “The Train,” and added the contributions of the
fellow band members (Finn Scott-Neff and Joe Shea) from the band “The Ebbs,” along with sensational singer-songwriter Ellen Braun. This partnership has taken “The Train” to new cinematic heights, providing a haunting and melodic sound as a perfect backdrop for film.
Barker Street Cinema has taken “The Train” and created a moving and powerful prequel. “The Train” set for release April 29th, 2021.
The story:
Set in a dystopian world besieged by economic depression and environmental depredation, THE TRAIN takes place a decade or more before the events of Barker Street Cinema’s upcoming science fiction short film, ARIEL ALPHA, and is visually rooted in the early-20th
century aesthetic of a collapsed civilization that has yet to fully experience the game-changing effects of advanced robotic and artificial intelligence research integral to the storyline of ARIEL ALPHA.
Throughout the story of THE TRAIN, it is implied that the protagonist (William Kuklis) is a rough-sleeping, cybernetically enhanced humanoid on the run who is looking to keep his existence a secret from the rest of society while desperately trying to find a mysterious woman who is trapped, alone, on THE TRAIN
