This, probably the most famous film by the top Estonian animator and artist Priit Pärn, bears all the typical characteristics of his work - influenced by surrealism, a combination of artistic styles, experimentation with techniques, and an ironic to sarcastic tone in the message. Two hotel rooms represent a saturated Western society and a communist society experiencing scarcity. They are separated by a door, which one day opens. When the visitors from the dark neighboring room start to overwhelm the occupants of the colorful, luxury room, they give its occupants a worthless trinket and simply lock the door... Due to the fast pace, switching of images, and abstract expression used in experimental animation, it is recommended to see Hotel E several times. It is one of the fundamental works of modern animation, more suitable for animation enthusiasts rather than average consumers of animated family films. Overall impression: 100%. ()
