About Paradise Is Burning
Left to their own devices by their absent mother, Laura and her two sisters revel in the excitement of freedom, letting their days unfold without the constraints of adult supervision. However, when Laura receives a call that threatens to place them in foster care, she frantically searches for a substitute mother to avoid this fate.
Directed by Mika Gustafson, Paradise Is Burning leans on a strong ensemble — Bianca Delbravo, Dilvin Asaad, Safira Mossberg — 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 drama titles of 2023.
