In the Californian desert, lost on Route 66, the Sunset Motel is a mysterious place
populated by marginal figures from the universe of cartoonist Thomas Ott. We take on the
role of the motel's new guest, who becomes acquainted, from one room to the next, with
the ghostly presences that frequent this place of shadows. At the end of our
exploration, one conclusion is possible: the Sunset Motel is an antechamber, the
incarnation of Limbo, where the souls of the dead wait before reaching their final
destination; the light.
An immersive virtual reality project in collaboration with and based on the work of
Swiss illustrator Thomas Ott.
