Aspettando Il Sole

Synopsis

Italy, 1980s. Three thugs stumble upon a remote, out-of-place hotel: a refuge at the edge of the world. But this isn't just their story. Because at the Bellevue Hotel, other guests exist, breathing or crying behind a door with worn numbers, gestures of love or desperation, whispered voices or screams. In the intertwining of each of these stories, walls dissolve and doors open, revealing the thread that binds the destinies of all the guests.
