Paradise is set in a dystopian future where a genetics research company is cracking the code on eternal youth. Unfortunately, in order to conduct their research, they must take the youth of others. People donate years of their life, aging their bodies forward while their youth is essentially transplanted into another person.

It sounds like a way to make some quick cash, like donating plasma. Not great, but it won’t kill you immediately. Of course, where there is power, there is corruption.

The procedures in Paradise are used to keep the rich young, but youth becomes a currency and, in the case of the film’s main characters, a debt to be paid. This Netflix original follows Max and Elena, a married couple who must fight for Elena’s life after a financial disaster leads to a bank taking 40 years of her life.
