Paradise film by Jérémy Comte explores intersecting lives in Ghana and Quebec

The film ‘Paradise’, directed by Jérémy Comte, is a social drama that connects two disparate lives across different continents. The narrative follows two young men: Kojo, an adolescent in Ghana who joins street gangs following his father's disappearance at sea, and Tony, a young man in Quebec searching for identity while his mother pursues a relationship with a man met online.

The film explores themes of adolescence, the search for paternal figures, and the impact of digital connectivity. It highlights how technology can facilitate both connection and fraud, specifically through the lens of online scams that link the characters' destinies through the internet.
