Based on “Matisse’s Self Portrait” by playwright Charles Mee and the Greek film documentary “Yiannis Moralis” by Stelios Charalambopoulos, Hôtel Méditerranée is a collage of live performance and film documentary. By following the lives of two renowned painters, “Hôtel Méditerranée” interrogates the negotiation between making a livelihood and the creative process, and explores the angsts and pleasures behind all great creativity and behind all human existence.
