Motel Aquarium

About This Movie

Motel Aquarium is this intriguing little drama that really dives into the depths of human connection, or maybe the lack thereof. The atmosphere feels heavy, almost claustrophobic, like you’re trapped in this little motel with the characters as they wrestle with their own ghosts. The pacing has this almost languid quality, but it works—building tension in a subtle way. You won't find flashy effects here; it’s all about the performances, which feel raw and grounded. It’s distinctive because it captures that strange, almost surreal feeling of being lost in a place that’s both familiar and foreign. It lingers with you long after the credits roll, making you think about the complexities of relationships in such confined spaces.
