Berlin, May 3, 2023 - Eternal youth: utopia or soon-to-be reality? In the near-future thriller Paradise, debts are paid by transferring years of one's life as a last resort. Trade your life for money - a concept that raises fundamental ethical questions: what's a life worth, and what are humans willing to do for eternal youth ?

In this featurette, lead actors Iris Berben, Kostja Ullmann and Marlene Tanczik offer a first glimpse at the story and the making of the movie. They discuss the profound, life-changing circumstances that become reality in Paradise.

First press materials are available in the Netflix Media Center.

About Paradise

Trade your life for money: In the not-too-distant future, a method of transferring years of your life from one person to another has changed the world forever and turned biotech start-up AEON into a billion-dollar pharmaceutical company.

Max and Elena live an almost perfect life. But when the couple is faced with unexpected insurance claims that they can't pay, everything quickly changes. To pay off their debts, Elena (Marlene Tanczik) must pay with 40 years of her life. Robbed of their life together, their future lies in tatters. Max (Kostja Ullmann), who works for AEO, tries everything he can to get Elena's lost years back. But nothing will ever be the same again.

This gripping thriller set in the near-future was produced by Simon Amberger, Korbinian Dufter and Rafael Parente from NEUESUPER GmbH (Hindafing, Luden). The screenplay was written by director Boris Kunz (Hindafing, Breaking Even) together with Peter Kocyla (Luden) and Simon Amberger. Christian Stangassinger (Barbarians, Season 1) acts as Director of Photography, with Marc Bitz (Baghead) and Josef Brandl (The Goldfish) on set design.

Kostja Ullmann (My Blind Date With Life) and Iris Berben (How About Adolf?) star alongside Corinna Kirchhoff (Die Diplomatin), Marlene Tanczik (Never Look Away), Lisa-Marie Koroll (Ze Network), Alina Levshin (Combat Girls), Lorna Ishema (Hyperland), Numan Acar (Homeland) and Lisa Loven Kongsli (Force Majeure).
