Welcome to the neon-hued Motel Destino, a roadside sex hotel shimmering under Brazil’s burning blue skies and run by hot-headed Elias and his restless younger wife Dayana. The unexpected arrival of 21-year-old Heraldo, on the run after a botched hit, disrupts the established order.
As this tropical noir scenario plays out, unspooling loyalties and desires intertwine to reveal that destiny has its own enigmatic design.
Brilliantly performed by its three leads, Motel Destino is a sweaty, sensual dance of power, desire and liberation, full of humour and kitsch.
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
