The story

According to O'Neill, the film is an "intersection of fact and hallucination".

It is set inside the decaying halls of the closed Ambassador Hotel, former home to the Cocoanut Grove restaurant and the first Academy Awards ceremonies.

O'Neill's time-lapse photography lends the film an ethereal effect that serves an intentionally distancing purpose.
