The
Million Dollar Hotel is a story of friendship, betrayal and
the overwhelming power of unconditional love. A gang of unique
outcasts and misfits live in a downtown Los Angeles flea-pit,
known locally as the "Million Dollar Hotel."

Their
story is seen through the eyes of a lovesick innocent named
Tom Tom (Jeremy Davies), who has fallen head over heels for
the tarnished street angel Eloise (Milla Jovovich). As their
relationship develops, the Million Dollar Hotel becomes the
focus of a police investigation.
One
of its residents, the engaging junkie Izzy, has come to a
grisly end. To the amazement of his neighbors, he is revealed
to have been the son of a billionaire media magnate. Every
denizen of the Million Dollar Hotel falls under suspicion
in the inquiry led by FBI hard-liner, Detective Skinner (Mel
Gibson).
As
Skinner's investigation proceeds, the lines between murder
and suicide, sane and deranged, become very blurred indeed.
