Alternavox Recommends: The Refugee Hotel

By Mikhail Saavedra

In part because it is part of my own collective memory, in part because it is a story that has international connotations and also because it is a damn good story Alternavox recommends “The Refugee Hotel” stay tuned for an upcoming  review of this moving work of art. This one of a kind presentation runs from September 16th to October 4th at the Theatre Passe Muraille Mainspace, 16 Ryerson Ave.

Set in a residential Vancouver hotel, The Refugee Hotel tells the story of a family of Chilean political refugees who arrive in Canada months after Chile’s 1973 military coup d’état. Heartbreaking and humorous, at its core, it is a story about the power of love and the poetic ability of the human spirit to survive adversity.
