Paradise [Blu-ray] [US]

Release Date: 12/11/2024

Romance and adventure abound in this lyrical story of two teenagers who come of age in the isolation of a lush desert oasis. In the nineteenth century Middle East, David (Willie Aames, TV's EIGHT IS ENOUGH) and Sarah (Phoebe Cates, FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH) are the only survivors of a caravan massacre carried out by an infamous slave trader known as the Jackal (Tuvia Tavi, SAHARA), who is obsessed with Sarah's beauty. Fleeing the Jackal, they stumble on a magical place they will come to know as "Paradise," where they discover refuge, sustenance...and each other.

This version contains several minutes of never-before-seen footage, as well as the chart-topping theme song sung by Phoebe Cates.
