Netflix's sci-fi thriller Paradise delivers a twisty ending, but the story of Elena and Max’s battle against AEON makes sense upon a rewatch.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT While Paradise’s ending might come as a surprise, the dystopian thriller’s conclusion makes sense upon a rewatch. Paradise is a German Netflix movie released in July 2023. The sci-fi thriller tells the story of Elena and Max, both of whom are entangled with a shady corporation known as AEON. Set in the near future, Paradise imagines a world wherein wealthy people can buy years of a donor’s life in exchange for cash.
What Happens To Elena & Max After Paradise's Ending In Paradise’s ending, the anti-AEON group ADAM takes Marie, Max, and Elena hostage. They're opposed to all age-swapping procedures and hope to lure Sophie into their clutches via her daughter, Marie. Unfortunately, the confrontation between ADAM and AEON concludes with ADAM’s leader dead and Sophie escaping justice. While this goes down, Elena takes Marie hostage.
Why Elena Took Marie’s Years Max struggles with the idea of Elena taking four decades of Marie’s life, as Marie is technically innocent and even opposes the work done by her mother’s company. Since Marie’s mother Sophie — not Marie herself — is the one who stole Elena’s years, Max’s trepidation is understandable. However, Marie tries to shoot Elena when given the chance, so it's clear she doesn't care about Elena’s life. As such, Elena reasons that she's right to reclaim her years.
How Max Joining Adam Sets Up Paradise 2 Paradise’s clever premise sets up the potential for a series of sci-fi movies. The film takes place in a world filled with the sort of chilling technological innovations seen in most Black Mirror episodes. Max joining ADAM gives Paradise 2 a great potential storyline.
