Paradise Netflix Trailer Depicts A Future Where Humans Could Trade Years of Their Lives!
The Netflix film ‘Paradise’ is a German-language sci-fi thriller set in a not-too-distant future where humans can swap years of their lives for wealth or to pay off crushing debts.
Start-up in biotechnology AEON uses ground-breaking new technology to remove years from a person’s life and transfer them into the bodies of the wealthy and famous who want perpetual youth.
Max (Kostja Ullmann) works for AEON, a biotech business that has made it big by developing a “time donation program” in which you give up years of your life for someone else to utilize.
In exchange, you are compensated and “rejuvenated” with youth. The difficulty is that you have no influence over who receives those years of your life — and it appears that millionaires are the ones who buy them.
And Max’s wife, Elena (Marlene Tanzcik), is a target for the now-billion-dollar pharmaceutical corporation, which can potentially steal people’s years as payment for unpaid debts.
Max and Elena’s almost-perfect lives are shattered when they are confronted with surprising insurance claims they cannot pay. Elena sells 40 years of her life to AEON as a last option, depriving her and Max of a lifetime together and leaving their future in ruins.
Max, an AEON employee, does everything he can to reclaim Elena’s lost years. Even if he could, everything would be different.
Then Max discovers that AEON’s CEO (Iris Berben) wants Elena’s life, motivating him to kidnap her and sparking a search that drives the young couple to flee their home and tests their moral boundaries.
The film, directed by Boris Kunz, has a near-future scenario. This upcoming film, starring German actresses Kostja Ullmann, Iris Berben, and Marlene Tanczik, is proof of Netflix’s ambition to broaden its offerings beyond U.S.-centric grounds.
It’s worth noting Netflix’s uncertainty regarding fantasy and sci-fi programs since several have met unfortunate ends despite their greatness.
Even with this, let us hope the biotech AEON pharmaceutical firm hooks viewers’ hearts to gain a following. However, given the platform’s past, a vast and dedicated audience is ultimately meaningless.
