Abdykalykov and Abdyjaparov mention that the work is about stillness, infinite expectation and interwoven memories; that even with a loss of innocence, there is always hope. They are also interested in the relationships between the individual and the group, and the larger sociopolitical allegory that might lie behind such a seemingly straightforward fable of inclusion, exclusion and extremely unreliable bus timetables.
