A charming, gently humorous and life-affirming drama set in contemporary India. Rajiv, an over-worked, middle-aged son, is forced to accompany his 77 year old father, Daya, who is seeking salvation in the holy city of Varanasi. While rooted in Indian values and culture, Hotel Salvation transcends borders with its themes of family ties, revelations and finding peace and contentment during the later stages of life.
