Hotel Royal

As the chambermaid of a large seaside hotel (played by actress Ana Moreira) performs her cleaning duties, she lives vicariously through the belongings that each guest leaves in their room. A cold and mediated life, in which the chambermaid’s analytical method encloses her further and further into a form of self-imposed isolation. Until everything changes.

Hotel Royal is presented as the October 2025 edition of e-flux Film’s series Staff Picks featuring Salomé Lamas. This edition is organized with the support of Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation; Portuguese Short Film Agency; O Som e a Furia.
