Eurostar: Fast Easy Secure

From Rhizome Artbase

Description

Eurostar is the high-speed rail service that connects London to Paris and Brussels. Eurostar: Fast Easy Secure parodies the official Eurostar website and the language of advertising to highlight the experiences of political asylum seekers and economic refugees who use the luxury train to enter Britain clandestinely.
