Hotel is a humorous and provocative short-film project, a critical discourse about a small society of self-centered – i.e. absorbed, adjusting, controlled and controlling - people. The Hotel operates as a metaphor for subculture, articulating the physical and mental limitations a subculture imposes on its members. THERE IS NUDITY IN THIS PROJECT.

Roles:
[ HOTEL OWNER ] approx. 50 years old, male hotel owner, wealthy, wise, fat, has given up, greedy. THERE IS NUDITY FOR THIS ROLE. [ BELLBOY ] 25-35, male, asexual, beast, model, arrogant, loyal, doggy (Do you mean 'dodgy,' or is this a reference to the 'asexual, beast' element?) absent. [ FOUR TRAINEES ] 18-30 years old, female/male, ambitious, naïve, emotional, starving for fame. THERE IS NUDITY FOR THESE ROLES.

To be fair - it's a student project. But still, that's more than 1 or 2 people getting naked for you for free. You can't have it all, my friend. You gotta fork over some lettuce if you want to see the buns.
