Cactus Hotel

Synopsis

In the American Southwest, a Giant towers unmissable into the blue skies. At first glance it is seemingly lifeless. But if you look closely, the icon of the Sonoran Desert is like a luxury hotel to many desert dwellers. With daily “check-ins” and “check-outs”, the wild guests all bring with them amazing survival skills, hunting thrills and housing ideas. They are an unusual band of neighbors and they all have one thing in common: they will cross paths at the fabulous Cactus Hotel.

This 50 minutes wildlife documentary tells the life story of an old saguaro cactus with its wild day tourists, quirky residential communities and long-term tenants who manage to make this prickly fortress their home.
