Excellent Doc!!!

PARADISE LOST is an excellent addition to a set of recent films by women dealing with exile & the search for home. The difference is that PARADISE LOST is an extremely personal doc told entirely in the first person, whereas these films are more typically narrative features that allow filmmaker to hide her own emotions within the story (e.g., BRICK LANE, FRAULEIN, THE NAMESAKE, etc).

Furthermore, primary location is a Palestinian village that is located somewhere along the Israeli coast (within the Haifa/Tel Aviv corridor), so emotions are very raw. Contrast this to the characters in FRAULEIN who meet in Zurich after the Bosnian War is long over.

Highly recommended film is available on VHS from Manhattan distributor Women Make Movies (www.wmm.com).
