Hotel Harabati

Brice Cauvin France 2006 94 minutes (12)

A Parisian couple find a suitcase full of money with a middle eastern connection. This is the start of a playful narrative, a slippery absurdist comedy where this incident disrupts the couple's lives.

"Teasing and provocative, Hotel Harabati is most appealing in its matter-of-fact concision. It doesn't, finally , have an obvious point to make, which makes it all the more subtly Bunuelian."Jonathan Romney, Sight and Sound
