What they share

Theysit in Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Paradise Now is

Nablus. A summer morning. The hum of machinery. Two men are enlisted for a mission, their bodies prepared, their heads shaved. But complications arise at the border, plans falter, and faith is tested. A tense pre-9/11 artifact.
