“Suite Dreams” is a three-episode fiction film set in hotel rooms that hold historical, social, and symbolic layers of Brazil. At Hotel Riazor (Rio de Janeiro), the story unfolds on the night of August 24, 1954, facing the windows of Catete Palace — when entering history can mean leaving life behind. Madeira Palace (São Paulo), a well-known downtown hotel associated with chemsex encounters, receives a character immersed in delirium and confinement, confronted with his own duplication. Freely inspired by Campos de Carvalho. At Hotel Glória (Rio de Janeiro), the rise of a new real estate icon unfolds — because even ghosts are forced to update themselves.
