Hotel California
Germany
Dark and sensual, HOTEL CALIFORNIA is a mesmerizing black and white photo and video collage that tells an intricate tale of toxic relationships, a glimpse through the peeping hole into the protagonist’s memories. Set to the sultry voice of Noblesse Oblige’s lead singer, in this cover of The Eagles’ famous song, the filmmaker creatively envisions the inner turmoil of a young man remembering a seductive and destructive femme fatale, in a collage of past and present, vulnerability and inner demons. With a distinctive film noir atmosphere, HOTEL CALIFORNIA doesn’t talk about a place; hell is not somewhere you go, but something you carry around with you.
