Synopsis
In the eerie beauty of PARADISE, a woman cleans the viscous from between her legs and proceeds to tighten stitches which run down her leg like a seam. A man spills from the washing machine and is shaken into life. A fish is sacrificed. A girl draws surgical stitches on her legs and an inflatable shark proves an unusual sex toy. It is a world where disquieting emotion seethes and where the peculiar logic of a woman's mind can make the ordinary bizarre and the bizarre ordinary. Inspired by 'The Little Mermaid' PARADISE is at once a vivid meditation and a nightmare.
