"Paradise Recovered" at the Talking Pictures Festival

Northwestern University, 633 Clark St, Evanston, IL | Get Directions »
$10.00

How often do we see a comedy set in the world of religious fundamentalism? This charming indie film follows Esther, a devout young woman, who lives under the watchful eye of a conservative Christian sect.  When Esther takes a job at the local health food store, her beliefs collide with her more bohemian co-workers' views. Accused by her church of sinning, Esther’s new friends stand by her and open her mind to different experiences and provocative questions. 

Filled with light comedic touches and never condescending, Paradise Recovered manages to question the spiritually abusive aspects of Esther's path without ever attacking her genuine, deeply felt faith. 

With director Storme Wood and writer/co-producer Andie Redwine in person!
