Avant-garde fashion editorial featuring Andrej Pejic



The Snowpiercer traverses a circular railway that extends for 428,000 kilometers to complete one circle every year.

Inside The Snowpiercer 02 : Protein Block Section + Water Supply Section While the elites in the Front enjoy a luxurious array of food options, the only food rationed to the people in the Tail Section is a substance called a "protein block". It is a large, black, and translucent jelly bar which looks similar to a Japanese red bean dessert. The ingredients that make up a typical protein block remain ambiguous to the Tail Section people, but they are resigned to resort to eating these tasteless bars on a daily basis. Protein blocks are the sole source of nutrition and contain the bare minimum required for survival among the people of the Tail Section. The protein blocks themselves are produced in the area adjacent to the Greenhouse Section of the Snowpiercer. Previously, the machines in this car created fertilizer, but it has since been modified to manufacture the protein bars that are distributed to the Tail Section. Since all the foods are controlled by the Front, the jelly-like substance made in the machine housed in the Protein Block Section is the only lifeline for the Tail Section people. Also produced within the Protein Block Section is a substance called "kronole". These are small, greenish cubes which are highly flammable and give off a hallucinating effect when inhaled. Kronole is now considered as a popular new form of recreational drug, replacing the now-extinct cigarettes, that is abused by both the indulgent elites in the Front and the derelict addicts in the Tail. Close to the Greenhouse and Protein Block Sections of the train is the Water Supply facility. As the train perpetually circles the globe, it constantly encounters large barriers of ice and compacted snow which the train easily pierces through with sheer force (hence the name, Snowpiercer). The head of the train was designed to catch large chunks of ice and snow and goes through an intricate system and ends up in the Water Supply section. It is here that the melted ice and snow is cleansed, filtered, and sterilized before it is redistributed to the Front Section. But while the collected water is transported to the Tail Section as well, the water is barely usable as the amount the Tail dwellers receive is extremely scant and the pipelines running toward the back of the train are poorly managed.





Inside The Snowpiercer 03 : Greenhouse Section + Classroom Section Nearly midway through the train lies the verdant Greenhouse Section, which is officially considered as part of the Front Section. This area houses an impressive display full of plants, fruits, and vegetables. Yet the flora and edible food cultivated here is minimal and strictly controlled since the car was never designed to provide speedy production food supplies. Only the privileged few from the Front get to taste the produce cultivated in the Greenhouse. This car serves nothing more than an exhibition and leisure space, offering the Front Section passengers to enjoy a bit of greenery in contrast to the barren and icy world outside the confines of the Snowpiercer. As the train ride prolonged, the adults of the Front Section raised needs for proper education to their young children. But the curriculum, however, is drastically different from what was previously taught on a pre-ice age Earth, as the lessons learned by the children of the Front covers the history of the train and unquestioned veneration for Wilford--the creator of the Snowpiercer. The Classroom Section is more of a daycare school where the Front Section adults merely drop off their kids while they enjoy their leisures in peace. The design of the car itself--from the hyper-saturated color scheme, wooden desks, and an organ altar in the front reserved for the Teacher (Alison Pill)--highly suggests that the train's academic institution was built with a religious function from the very beginning. On the subject of children, there is a distinction between those who were born on Earth before the new ice age began and those who were born within the Snowpiercer once the nuclear winter destroyed the planet. The latter youths are known as "Train Babies"--generations conceived and birthed aboard the train and have never stepped foot on Earth. For the Train Babies, both from the Front and the Tail, the Snowpiercer is the only world they know. Having been born on the very first year that the train departed, Yona (Ko Ah-Sung)--the daughter of Namgoong Minsu--represents the first generation of the Train Babies. But considering the extreme class division within the confines of the train, the lives of the children from the Tail Section are vastly different from the kids living in the Front. Only the kids from the Front benefit from a pampered lifestyle and receive the cult-like education in the Classroom Section, while the Tail Section children are forced to deal with the hardships of their miserable existence together with their elders, and are subject to a mysterious event that allows the Front to seize selected youths away from their parents by force and be carted off to parts unknown within the Snowpiercer.
