It does that in an ascending movement starting from the hall of the hotel and, through the elevator, until the top floor. We see long fixed shots of the corridors, slow travelings going forwards and backwards meticulously focusing on doors and windows, and at the end a long panoramic shot scanning the horizon between buildings and sky.\r\n\r\nThe influence of the just discovered experimental cinema is evident, and this immaculate capture of space delineates the formal schemes used in future works of fiction, specially regarding duration and seriality. Behind closed doors and away from the abstract comings and goings of anonymous customers emerges a fascinating reservoir of potential fictions."},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"‘Hotel Monterey’, een film zonder verhaal, bestaat uit de fragmentarische en opwaartse beschrijving van het gebouw, te beginnen van de inkomhall en via de lift tot de laatste verdieping. Vaste beeldopnames van de gangen, zeer trage voorwaartse en achterwaartse travellings die inzoomen op de deuren en de vensters, en een grote panoramische eindopname die de horizonlijn tussen hemel en gebouwen aftast.\r\n\r\nDe invloed van de net voordien ontdekte experimentele film is zeer duidelijk, maar deze pure opname bakent de vormelijke schema’s af die in de toekomstige ficties aangewend zullen worden: tijdsduur en serialiteit. Achter de gesloten deuren en het komen en gaan van de anonieme klanten gist men een fascinerende reserve aan potentiële ficties.\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":"\"Film sans récit, Hotel Monterey est constitué par la description fragmentaire et ascensionnelle du lieu, du hall au dernier étage en s’élevant au moyen de l’ascenseur.
