Summary

Sunset Motel

The film is dedicated to the Italian writer Cesare Pavese: Laura works in a café in Sunset Plaza and lives in the Saharan Motel on Sunset Boulevard. She falls in love with the young writer Raoul. While Laura is open with her feelings, Raoul cannot seem to show his feelings for her.

 

The more Laura fights to win him over, the more he withdraws himself. Realizing that he is torturing Laura, he asks his friends, the famous writers Hubert Selby Jr. (Last Exit to Brooklyn) and Janet Fitch (White Oleander), for help. But he is incapable of following their advice and of opening up to Laura’s unconditional devotion. Finally, Laura sees only one way out of her loneliness and despair...
