Dear Programmers:
Nothing is more important than a film that strives to help us work together to save the planet. To this end, we at TFC are proud to bring you the new doc THE MAP TO PARADISE, fresh off its recent World Premiere at the 2019 Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
A stunning achievement on a modest budget, THE MAP TO PARADISE is a beautiful glimpse into the global marine-sanctuary movement to restore the natural environment of the world’s oceans.
Please email us at festivals@thefilmcollaborative.org for screeners.
All best,
The Film Collaborative |

| | ABOUT THE FILM: THE MAP TO PARADISE is an adventure-filled and spectacularly gorgeous tale about the birth of the global movement to protect the sea. From underwater worlds of ice to glistening coral sanctuaries, discover what it takes to build a movement and to create positive change.
Filmed across six continents, the filmmakers have set out to challenge the mainstream narrative of hard-hitting environmental documentaries with a “doom and gloom” message, and replace it with one of hope and courage. Along the way, we meet a prince, a president, a pirate, and also an island chief—among others—who are all playing a role in the quest to save the planet.
Mixing colorful character-driven stories and hand-rendered animations, THE MAP TO PARADISE is a rare urgent environmental wake-up call that retains a sense of awe and wonder for the kind of beauty that is still possible.FESTIVALS 2019: Santa Barbara International (World Premiere) FESTIVAL TERRITORIES The World EXHIBITION FORMATS DCP, Blu-Ray MORE INFO: themaptoparadise.com Email us for screeners or streaming links. |
