Movie description:
An idyllic luxury hotel in Belgium is home to a variety of turbulent situations in this drama from director Kaat Beels. The Swooni is a hotel in Brussels where the wealthy (and those who like to imagine what it’s like to be wealthy) go to get away from their troubles, but not everyone there is so fortunate. Hendrik (Geert Van Rampelberg) is a policeman who has checked in with his wife Anna (Sara De Roo) and teenage son Jens (Enrique De Roeck). They’re in Brussels to attend a wedding, but Hendrik  ...
6 lives. 24 hours. A hotel in the middle of a heat wave. Anna and Hendrik have it all: a great son, a good job, a lovely house But the wedding they attend in the hotel forces them to reflect on the choices they have made. Hendrik is happy. Anna is not. Is that all there is? she wonders. Especially when her lover shows up, asking her to run off with him to greener pastures.
Violette wants to reconcile with her daughter Vicky before she dies. But Vicky, a chambermaid in the hotel, finds it hard to forget old hurts. She takes care of Joyeux, a young African refugee hiding in the hotel from the police. She lets her mother believe the boy is her own son. After all, with her he ll have a much better life But then Amadou, Joyeux father, arrives at the hotel looking for his son. And the lives of all these people will be irrevocably intertwined. At least until the heat breaks and the rain offers some relief.
