Paradise is a German Netflix original movie directed by Boris Kunz from a screenplay written by Kunz, Peter Kocyla, and Simon Amberger.
Set in a not-too-distant future, Paradise follows a couple who are faced with a difficult situation. Max and Elena were living life happily in love when one day they discover they have a crushing insurance debt. To pay it off, Elena must give up 40 years of her life to a pharmaceutical company called AEON. AEON would then transfer these years of life to another person. This process has been going on for a while, turning AEON into a billion-dollar company.
Obviously, Max doesn’t like that he and Elena have been robbed of their future together. So, he desperately searches for a way to make things right and get Elena’s lost years back.
Well-known German actor Kostja Ullmann stars in the leading role of Max. He’s known for his other roles in the movies Summer Storm, Verfolgt, Heimliche Liebe – Der Schüler und die Postbotin and A Most Wanted Man. He also had roles in the TV shows Zwei Männer am Herd, World Without End, Beat and Westwall.
Marlene Tanczik plays a young Elena in the sci-fi film. You might recognize her from her previous roles in the TV shows Mik & Honey and Schneller als die Angst. She also had roles in the films Never Look Away, Die Toten am Meer – Der Wikinger and Ein Taxi zur Bescherung.
Corinna Kirchhoff portrays an older Elena in Paradise. She’s known for her previous roles in the TV shows Zodiak – Der Horoskop-Mörder, Dead End, Tatort and Sarah Kohr. She also had roles in the movies Riskante Patienten, Casting, Ein Leben Lang and Measures of Men.
Here’s the cast list:
It’s rated TV-MA, meaning it’s meant to be viewed by mature, adult audiences only. It was given this maturity rating for strong language, nudity, sex, smoking, and violence. Overall, we wouldn’t recommend watching this film with kids around.
