WritersMosaic Films‘ ‘Paradise’ was screened in Dublin at the 2024 Bloomsday Film Festival, Ireland’s most literary film festival. ‘Paradise’ was created by Missohio Studio and is based on Roger Robinson’s tough but tender and ethereal poem. The film visualises paradise through a distorted lens, uncovering the existential undertones of a ‘perfect’ resort life in the current climate crisis. Robinson’s collection, A Portable Paradise, won both the 2019 T. S. Eliot Prize and the Royal Society of Literature’s Ondaatje Prize 2020 for a distinguished work evoking the spirit of a place – in this instance, post-Windrush Britain.
