Paradies: Liebe (Paradise: Love) (2012)
Director: Ülrich Seidl
Country: Austria
First of Paradise-Trilogy, Paradise:Love tells the story of middle aged european (Austrian) women who would travel to Africa as their dream Holiday destination and tells the story of their encounter with African boys on the beaches of Kenya, in search of Love ?
The film has the Seidl’s mark all over it. The black humour, stationary and attentively staged shots and amazing cast.
From the film:
Man: People think that because I am with you I have money.
Woman: You have money?
Man: They think I have money from you.
Woman: And you want money ?
Man: Me? No money…Love, it’s Love, just Love
