Eden

Adam is a seemingly ordinary guy in a very extraordinary universe. He lives humbly trying to make ends meet, but his romantic spirit holds on to the memory of a girl he loved once upon a time from another world, an inverted affluent world with its own gravity, directly above but beyond reach… a girl named Eden. Their childhood flirtation becomes an impossible love. But when he catches a glimpse of grownup Eden on television, nothing will get in the way of getting her back… Not even the law or science!

Eden a persistent utopia, a quest as fascinating as it is incongruous, has never ceased to obsess the collective imagination. With credits shaped as a travel diary, and dream-like landscapes shot in HD, this documentary tries to immortalize today's earthly paradises. The two directors traveled all over the world, from Buthan to Cuba, from Polynesia to Brittany, observing and interviewing those who are after this crazy quest that leads to Eden. On their way, they question this universal myth, retracing its evolution through the ages, and its different representations in the various civilizations.
