Synopsis – What to Expect from “Paradise Now”
Paradise Now is a 2005 Palestinian drama film about two childhood friends, Said and Khaled, who are recruited to be suicide bombers in Tel Aviv.
The movie starts in Nablus, Palestine, where Said and Khaled are living. They are childhood friends and have grown up together. They are approached by a leader of a militant organization who recruits them to be suicide bombers in Tel Aviv.
The two friends are taken to a secret location and given training in the use of explosives and how to carry out their mission. They are also given false identities and are told to stay in character until the mission is complete.
Meanwhile, Said’s sister, Amal, is worried about him and tries to find out what he is doing. She eventually discovers his involvement in the mission and confronts him. She begs him to back out of the mission and even goes to the militant leader in an attempt to stop the mission.
Meanwhile, Khaled is having second thoughts about the mission. He talks to Said about his doubts and eventually decides to back out. Said is determined to go through with the mission and leaves without Khaled.
On the day of the mission, Said is taken to the border and is about to carry out his mission when he is stopped by Israeli soldiers. He is taken into custody and interrogated. During the interrogation, Said confesses to his role in the mission and is taken away by the soldiers.
