Paraiso Travel

Paraiso Travel (which has broken box-office records in Colombia) is the story of Marlon Cruz (Aldemar Correa), a young Colombian man who, motivated by his girlfriend Reina (Angélica Blandon), leaves his comfortable life in Medellin and flees with her through Guatemala and Mexico, across the borders, illegally into the United States. Marlon's journey, which takes him through seedy strip clubs, dance halls, homeless hostels, and the streets of Jackson Heights, ultimately takes him to a place he could not have predicted. Directed by Simon Brand, with a screenplay by Jorge Franco and Juan Rendon, Paraiso Travel also stars John Leguizamo, Margarita Rosa de Francisco, and Ana de la Reguera.
