Great reviews for “The Paradise Suite”
November 1, 2015
“The imagery of the film is stunning. It speaks so purely about the themes and conveys emotions so strongly that it is likely to stay with you for a long time after the screening. All different aspects of the film; cinematography, production design, sound design and editing, are perfectly tuned to the director’s intention, making it hard to believe it is work by many different artists.” Annastina Haapasaari – NISIMAZINE
“Through a particularly low-key, unobtrusive directing style, the director gives the audience an incredibly realistic portrait of contemporary Europe, where each of the characters embodies a current stereotype contained in the collective unconscious.” Guglielmo Bettinardi – CINEUROPA
“It’s beautifully shot, with classic direction that knows when to pull into a character and when to sit back and watch the action, and there’s a natural lyrical sensibility about how the stories flow together.” Robert Bell – Exclaim!
“A powerful film that certainly deserved its OPENING SLOT at the Chicago EU Film Festival this year! Good job folks! Very, very good job!” Dennis Zdenek Kriz – Dennis at the Movies
