Great Britain/Greece 2015
In the future single people are arrested and have 45 days in a sealed resort by the sea - named ‘the Hotel’ - to find a new life partner. If they fail, they are transformed into an animal of their choice. After many unsuccessful attempts David flees into the woods, where people live who consciously choose to be and remain single, and where he meets a short-sighted woman who seems to be his soulmate. «A bitter evil, tender, socialpsychological, radical, matchmaking-protest film.» (ray Filmmagazin)
