Hotel Splendid

Streaming video - 2016

Selected to screen at the prestigious Society for Visual Anthropology Film Festival, this award-winning film is an intimate account of a community of migrants from Africa who are living in an Italian hotel converted into an emergency refugee camp. The film recounts the migrants' dramatic voyage to Europe -- the violence and abuse -- and the Kafkaesque, almost surreal experiences they encounter during the evaluation process. The film has been screened in many international festivals and won Best Documentary Film at **Valdarno Cinema Fedic** in Italy.
