This Wednesday, do not miss the excellent Mission Paradise, available at the cinema. Directed by Richard Wong, the feature film tells the daily life of a group of physically handicapped people, who decide to go to Montreal to have their first sexual experience in a brothel. Carried by Grant Rosenmeyer, Hayden Szeto and Ravi Patel, it is a deeply humanist work, a feel-good movie that is undoubtedly worth seeing.
Mission Paradis: a work that lifts morale
Social film, joyful and effective comedy, humanist film, buddy film, Mission Paradis (Come as you are in the original version) ticks all the boxes. Feature film deeply welcoming, it is an uninhibited feel-good movie that talks about sexuality among the disabled. A heavy subject at first, Richard Wong decided to treat his story through the prism of comedy. With a lot of humor and finesse, he places the spectators in a road movie like no other, alongside wonderfully endearing characters. 
Mission Paradis is a terribly humanistic film. An exciting human adventure, which reminds spectators how lucky they are to be healthy, how lucky they are to be able to interact normally with the rest of the world. It is also a work that wants to take an innovative look at the disabled. A feature film that presents them in a new, uninhibited, and "normal" light. Just to remember that they too have fantasies, desires, emotions, and that their condition does not always allow them to express them as they would like.
A touching comedy
Thus, Richard Wong stages a touching road movie. The story of three young disabled people who leave their home, and the supervision of their parents, to live their lives in the open air, and try the craziest experiences. A way for the filmmaker to remind us that there is no point in infantilizing the disabled, and that they want to be treated like others, equally. Mission Paradis is also an opportunity to address the sexuality of people with disabilities. A taboo subject perfectly highlighted in the feature film, without pathos or forcing, with an accuracy always impeccable. The film is never tearful, never embarrassing, and constantly rides the wave of sincerity, harmony, and relevance. 
An endearing feel-good movie, which presents deeply human characters, who would just like to be able to do the same thing as able-bodied people. Similarly, special mention to the character embodied by Gabourey Sidibe , a kind of straight and fair nanny, who guides them towards the road to happiness. A heroine who brings a comic and sensual dynamic quite strong. In short, Mission Paradis is a very convincing work. A touching dramatic comedy, especially thanks to its endearing characters, and its unusual look at the sexuality of the physically disabled. It's relevant, and it's a feel-good movie without attractive taboos. https://youtu.be/7JC_Nm3Ofic
