Motel to Motel

7 min,
Dir: Ryan Stec & Véronique Couillard
Motel to Motel is an experimental travelogue back dropped against the slowly eroding nostalgic atmosphere of the roadside motel. The work blends experimental and documentary approaches with photographic and cinematic influences as it follows a couple through cool and playful snapshots of green shag carpets, bedspread evening wear, sexual games, migrant Cape Breton workers and drug induced shivers.
