Lüks Otel(2011)
Luxury Hotel brings together four stories of hopelessness in the same hotel. Mehdi, who left behind a terrorist organization to pursue a new life; an Afghan family fleeing the Taliban; a young gay couple hoping to live their lives as they wish in the Istanbul of their dreams; and a young girl trapped in drug addiction. What begins as a stop filled with hope for them, this "Luxury Hotel," eventually becomes a limbo where they are trapped. No matter how much they flee, they may never truly escape their otherness. Yet they remain silent; we rarely hear them speak or react. There is a weariness over them, but it is clear they are screaming for help. Still, to hear their voices, perhaps we first need foresight.
