https://humanehollywood.org/app/uploads/2020/02/uRxFQYqY78gemxO9t6zA8UWy1u4.jpg580860Paradise is a bittersweet drama about a shy and lonely young boy and the couple whose lives he touches. While his father is mysteriously away, 10-year-old Willard is sent by his pregnant mother to spend his summer vacation with her best friend Lily in the small coastal Carolina town of Paradise. Lily is warm and tries to make Willard feel at home, but her husband, Ben, is less than welcoming to him and there is a strange coldness between the couple. Willard is befriended by an appealing tomboy named Billie, and the pair play gentle pranks and enjoy childhood adventures together. Before long the boy's charm begins to melt the icy Ben and we learn that the couple's estrangement began with the death of their three-year-old son several years before. Willard's presence helps reconcile them while he matures and faces his own fears and problems.
