“The Hotel will disappear.
The connection to the bigger twin has been cut.
They were dependent on each other for heat and water.
A circuit. Since then there is oil in the basement.
It has yet to be verified how valuable it is.”
Three days of hotel management in a building formerly used for dispatching goods at the overseas port in Bremen. There is a maid, a doorman, a bar, secret keys, a pianist and mysterious rules. A disappearing place. Three days the guests rent three different single and double rooms and immerse themselves in the tales and legends of the house.
