Paradise

Paradise (2023) is a German sci-fi thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Boris Kunz. The premise is cold and precise: a biotech giant called AEON has turned life-years into a tradeable commodity — harvested from one person, sold to another.

When Max and Elena fall into crushing debt, Elena agrees to hand over forty years of her life to the company. Max works at AEON. What he uncovers from the inside — that the CEO intends to take everything left of Elena's life, not just what was contracted — forces him to do something reckless: steal his wife back. The two go on the run across borders, and the film keeps tightening the screws on the moral question underneath the chase: who has the right to own time?

Kostja Ullmann and Lisa Loven Kongsli lead the cast. The film arrived on Netflix in 2023 and it earns its tension less from action set-pieces than from the logic of its own world, where the paperwork of exploitation looks completely legitimate. Stream Paradise online on iFILM.
