    Presents Directed by Alice Waddington Running time: 94 min Genre: Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Thriller Press Contact: KWPR - Katrina Wan, [email protected] Samuel Goldwyn Films – Ryan Boring, [email protected] LOGLINE A young woman is sent to Paradise Hills to be reformed only to learn that behind the high-class facility’s beauty is a sinister secret. SYNOPSIS On an isolated island, Uma (Emma Roberts) wakes up to find herself at Paradise Hills, a facility where high-class families send their daughters to become perfect versions of themselves. The facility is run by the mysterious Duchess (Milla Jovovich) where calibrated treatments including etiquette classes, vocal lessons, beauty treatments, gymnastics and restricted diets, revolve all physical and emotional shortcomings within two months. The outspoken Uma finds solace and friendship in other Paradise Hills residents -- Chloe (Danielle McDonald), Yu (Awkwafina) and Mexican popstar Amarna (Eiza Gonzalez). Uma soon realizes that lurking behind all this beauty is a sinister secret. It's a race against the clock as Uma and her friends try to escape Paradise Hills before it consumes them all. DIRECTOR’S NOTES In 2015, I began working on the treatment and first concept art pieces for Paradise Hills as my own kind of personal exorcism. I imagined more of a narrative feature than my arthouse short Disco Inferno – a tale that was Gothic, yet futuristic, a diverse story about universal female fears (loneliness, social rejection, hyper-control) set in our own world, a few decades into the future. I wanted to give girls and women an entertaining fairy tale that acted like a poison apple, filled with all of the visual and narrative treats that had fascinated me as a teenager: High fantasy, ‘90s shôjo manga, science fiction and costume dramas.

  • Kung Fury Tar Över Internet - Igen
    2015-05-28 18:29 CEST Kung Fury tar över internet - igen Äntligen, efter tre år, 180 000 fans som donerat $650,000 dollar som bidragit till Kickstarter-projektet, en tripp ner till Cannesfestivalen, sömnlösa nätter och en musikvideo med David Hasselhoff så är vi nära premiären av Kung Fury. “Nothing is worth doing if you’re not overdoing it.” Torsdagen den 28 maj så presenteras en av de mest framgångsrika och populära indie-projekten i Kickstarters historia. Projektet startades i en källare i norra Sverige av en kille som var trött på sitt vanliga jobb med en hyfsad snabb dator. David Sandberg, 28, flyttade in med sin mamma och började arbete med hans kortfilm ”Kung Fury” som var en hyllning till 80-talets actionfilmer. Ett arbete som nog de flesta människor nog skulle kalla ett ”långskott”. På grund av den svåra och framförallt dyra processen av att hitta en skådespelare till huvudrollen så beslöt sig Sandberg att ge rollen till sig själv. Han bjöd även in sina vänner till projektet för att hjälpa till, vem skulle kunna säga nej till att vara med i en film som innehåller både dinosaurier och vikingar? Processen att spela in en tre minuter lång filmtrailer påbörjades. Vänskap och teamkänsla har gjort Kung Fury till den film det blev. Redan från början har vänner och främlingar hjälpt till med allt från ljud och ljus, visuella effekter till att spela några av filmens största roller. Människor över hela jorden har hjälpt till att göra Kung Fury till en verklighet, och som David sa i hans tal under Cannesfestivalen: ”Jag är inte ensam längre.” Kung Fury är producerad av Laser Unicorn Productions med hjälp av Lampray, Universal Stories, Svt, SFI, Film i Västerbotten och Länsstyrelsen i Västerbotten.
