Expectations always run high for vacations at luxury resorts. For Pedro and his family, however, things start off with a nasty surprise: their suite has been double-booked, and they may have to share it with other people who suddenly show up at their door. This is a surreal Science-Fiction satire of a consumerist nightmare in which manipulative corporations peddle a perfectly staged pseudo-religious cult of tourism.
