A story of goodbyes. Of car ownership in general. And of one beloved car in particular.
In 1982, novelist Julio Cortazar and photographer Carol Dunlop traveled from Paris to Marseilles. Via the Autoroute du Soleil. Aboard their Volkswagen van Fafner. It took them a full month to cover this distance because they made a stop at every highway parking lot they came across. And spent the night in every second parking lot! This absurd-poetic journey resulted in the novel "The Autonauts of the Cosmos Highway.
In 2020 theater and audio producer Adriaan Van Aken will repeat this journey. According to the same rules. But on his own, aboard his family car. The goal: after 30 days and 60 stops, to reach Marseille and get rid of his car there. To then begin a carless existence.
