About Surviving Paradise
Surviving Paradise follows the adventures of 10-year-old Sam and 8-year-old Sara, Iranian children lost in Los Angeles, as they struggle to search for an uncle and elude the hit man who kidnapped their mother. On their way, they encounter a colorful cast of character and dangerous situations, but through connections they endure the rigors of life on the street.
Directed by Kamshad Kooshan, Surviving Paradise leans on a strong ensemble — Shohreh Aghdashloo, Kian Abedini, Lauren Parissa Abedini — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2000.
