Motel Destino
Synopsis
A junior in a crime family operating on the coast of Northern Brazil, Heraldo is given the task of punishing a man who owes the family money. Partying the night before the job, he meets a beautiful stranger, oversleeps, and is robbed of his possessions. The job goes south with fatal consequences, and Heraldo is pursued by both his former criminal gang and the police. He takes refuge in a roadside sex hotel, Motel Destino, run by the boorish Elias and his frustrated, beautiful wife Dayana. There’s a visceral attraction between Heraldo and Dayana. Alongside regular voyeurism, uncontrollable desire takes hold, along with dreams of liberation, leading to an explosive conclusion.
