Brilliant Acting By Clemens Schick As A Blind Man

Warning: Spoilers
i saw this film unexpected of what it is about but i have to say damn its quite amazing specially the last 10 minutes of it.

hotel desire 2011 is a German film about a maid who works at a hotel she drops her son to the school and comes to work at hotel from here things slow down as most of the time is wasted into useless dialog between hotel staff like cooks,the boss & other workers etc anyway the real great stuff starts right after when she begins going into rooms & cleans them she sees a lot of people in one room where some photo-shoot or film making is going on she stops the screen goes black & white this whole sequence is well shot by the director a lot of slow motion is used here as well to get more detail out of characters & environment it's not overdone & it works well enough.

now comes the big moment when Antonia the maid gets into the last room she thinks its empty but a phone call rings she freezes suddenly a naked blind man comes he doesn't know she is in the room he talks to himself wears his cloths on an he was about to look for shoes he touches the feet of the maid the maid could have moved easily from the place but she wanted more of its clear the guy feels her whole body they starts kissing & it leads to hot sex on the bed,i am telling you guys this is something else its short film but great one i mean 2 strangers having instant sex without saying anything to each other is haunting but beautiful at same time this film captures that mood nothing more.

if you are looking for some soft core or a hardcore porn film the please stay away this is not porn its a character study,the sex scene is quite explicit and not for everyone.

the best thing in this film is the acting of Clemens Schick yes he is the guy who played role of a bald bad guy in Casino Royale 2006,here he plays a blind person with so much deep emotions you could feel the pain in his eyes he included so much emotional depth into his character i can't explain his ranger is limitless great actor i must say.

the lead actress Saralisa Volm is fantastic she should be more famous,this film is no masterpiece but its good for what it is.

the only negative point is the whole boring hotel staff thing and dialogs it should have been edited down more it affects the pace since it runs only near 40 minutes its totally worth checking out.

Hotel Desire 2011 is a short film not to be missed my rating is 5/10.Recommended
