Paradise. An Imperialist Tragicomedy (Paradies. Eine imperialistische Tragikomödie)

A multinational company owned by Mrs Judit Angst is facing financial difficulties: she decides to hire a group of young anarchists to fake her "kidnapping". After a couple of weeks spent in confinement she will be able to justify the downfall of her company before the people and at the same time to gain the status of the opponent to the destruction and chaos. A direct inspiration for the film was the fake kidnapping of Peter Lorenz, a right-wing politician from Berlin in the early seventies. Lorenz spent two weeks in "captivity" of the "Bewegung 2. Juni" terrorist group, and then he managed to escape and exploit the whole case for the benefit of his election campaign.
