Century Hotel

If hotel rooms could talk, we would marvel at the adventures lived
within them. Weaving together seven stories from seven different
decades, we journey into a time capsule of the past century from
inside room 720, an extraordinary room in an anonymous city hotel. In
1921, the opening night of the hotel brings a new bride and her cruel
and wealthy husband to the room, setting in motion forces that will
impact its future inhabitants. The interlocking tales visit the room
in its many incarnations over the years, but the heart of events lie
in the decadent 1980s- a disposable plastic world where two strangers
unite for a tryst of unexpected emotion, creating a crumbling oasis at
the end of a dwindling era. It is only on New Year's Eve 1999, when a
teenager arrives at the newly refurbished hotel with a
self-destructive plan, that the long-buried secrets of Room 720 are
unlocked.
