Project Detail

Reservations

Synopsis

A long weekend on the South Coast of England. Reservations follows five hotel guests with one thing in common, they are all alone. The film explores the relationships that develop as these people's lives become inextricably intertwined. This sometimes dark but heartfelt drama set within the sumptuous backdrop of past grandeur really treats the viewer with an insight into the lives, hearts and minds of these seemingly pedestrian characters; as their lives shift in surprising ways. Reservations is devised using a process of improvisation with a cast of first time actors.
