A documentary set in Eritrea, Africa where two women, Dianne Griffin and Tobi Solvang, set out to observe an American HIV research team. Commencing their journey from the White Hotel, these women quickly become enchanted by the beauty of this foreign region. A foreign region of joy as well as repression, and of such opulence and sensuality as well as sexual mutilation. Inadvertently, the direction of their documentary takes a turn and becomes a personal study of Griffin and Solvang. [More]

Reviews for White Hotel
Griffin and Solvang deserve high marks for dealing most honestly, and incidentally effectively, with basics of the human condition, in East Africa and in their own hearts.
A self-indulgent work that focuses more on the two women than on the disease.
Griffin's rambling narration is self-absorbed, sounding like stream-of-consciousness meanderings from a therapy session.
Exposes how tradition, lack of education and financial instability is inextricably bound to Africa's AIDS crisis.
