Motel Destino

This erotic thriller from Brazil tells a story largely cut from the same cloth as film noir classics like "The Postman Always Rings Twice", but with supercharged volumes of high-octane sexuality splashed all over it. Passionate stirrings pervade virtually every aspect of the narrative, featuring sultry atmosphere, a trio of fearless performances, and stunning visuals. Set against the neon-lit backdrop of a roadside sex hotel in northeastern Brazil, the film follows Heraldo, a young impoverished man on the run from his criminal past, as he takes refuge at the motel.
