Hotell E (1992)
8/10
A nice, although confusing short if you haven't a clue about Soviet satellite-nation politics

I find it sad how this wonderful film has a somewhat pitiful rating, all due to the one review.

This, now, this is something. It's thoughtful. Not mean-spirited in much of any way (Anti-Americanism is not something without merit, much as to how most modern countries affected by the British, view their earlier nemesis/tormentor with contempt).

This, and Breakfast on the Grass (1987), are the best of Priit Parn's work. View this with an open mind. View it while understanding the problems that faced many eastern European's at the time...

And most importantly: Know your history. This is not one of those merely-pretentious works you see a lot, today. This is a thought-driven work purely... With a touch of the director's own zeal.
