Hotel Straussberg 2014

Directed by Jan Soldat

This hotel is not a comfort zone, but a military flavored prison, and his gay guests can be chained before they get disciplined. To outsiders, the scenery seem bizarre – but as always, it helps to recognize the peculiar in debt. Between delivery rituals there are friendly chats, but especially in the documentary observation of this German SM bondage role play there are flashing moments of real tenderness. So it’s also a comfort zone, somehow.
