At the same time (but only in the third part) her daughter is attending a camp for overweight children. In Paradise: Faith the conflicts between the missionary active Catholic shown and her Muslim husband.
background
The Paradies project was originally intended to consist of only one feature film with three storylines. Only in the course of post-production did Seidl decide to split the stories into three films. The titles of the films are inspired by the drama Faith Love Hope by Ödön von Horváth .
Paradise: Hope had its premiere on February 8, 2013 as part of the competition at the Berlin International Film Festival . The year before, Paradise: Love had already been shown in the Cannes competition and Paradise: Faith in the Venice competition . The trick of being represented with three different films at the three most important A festivals in the world within less than 12 months was only achieved by Krzysztof Kieślowski with his three-color trilogy .
