Synopsis

Winner of a Golden Palm Award, renovator of fantastic cinema from a paused mise-en-scene and an imaginary that’s as powerful as it is day-to-day , Apichatpong Weerasethakul is such a restless and free soul that he usually combines feature length films with installations or shorts that he uses as a note pad for a new film. Mekong Hotel is in this last line. Shot during the time of the floods in Thailand, the film moves between documentary and fiction. It all happens at a hotel with a view of the Mekong River where, among others, a vampire mother is staying, giving rise to some practically gory moments that are unusual in its director’s filmography.
