Room Number connects a group of random people through their desire for love, intimacy and approval. Elena and Alex are having an affair, Aivar dreams of becoming a woman, and Jey Yin has moved to a foreign country with high expectations that reality is unable to meet. The people in this hotel need an escape, a moment in time to be someone else for an hour, until a tragic event crushes the illusion and forces them all to wake up from their dream.
