Video Spot

MOTELX serves us an admirable menu of the best in horror cinema. This was the starting point for a concept that reflects, in an intriguing and horrifyingly beautiful way, the spirit of the Festival: "Where horror is the day’s special".

The spot itself was thought in a storytelling format that could turn into a short film to be shown at the Festival as well. Here, we explored the whole ambience of lust, the sublime and strangely refined tastes. Everything happens in a completely empty fancy dining restaurant where, to the sound of classical music, we go through a rich and detailed environment - nothing is out of place. A customer enters with all her superiority under the watchful eye of a waiter, who draws an intentionally strange smile, revealing his yellow teeth.

At this point we already begin to sense something bizarre in the air. There is a latent tension. Who is that strangely impeccable figure smiling at the customer and inviting her to taste something truly wonderful?

The answer is served to us on a platter at the end.
