Memories of Paraíso
2003 · 52 min · Documentary
In the rainforest of Peru, there once stood a legendary and mysterious city called Paraíso. It was founded by survivors of an Andean earthquake who dreamed of building a future for their families. But that dream quickly ended when drug traffickers and Maoist guerrillas stormed the town. Today, Paraíso, once a place of luxury and extravagance, is nothing but ruins, reclaimed by the jungle. The town was bombed, destroyed, and abandoned, but its former inhabitants are beginning to return and tell their story for the first time.
