Paraiso for Sale
What price would you pay for paradise? And who would you be willing to take it from? The pristine archipelago of Bocas del Toro, Panama attracts retirees and developers from the U.S. with its crystal-clear waters and its island culture. This documentary explores the effects this fast-growing migration of Americans is having on the local community and tells the stories of people who call this area home and would like to keep it that way. From an American couple, who\u2019ve invested not just in their home but in their Panamanian community, to a local businessman turned political hopeful and an indigenous leader fighting for his land, the characters and stories speak to the larger global issue of communities, new and old, under siege from modern day colonialism, residential tourism, global gentrification and reverse migration, by revealing that immigration between Latin America and the US is not just a one-way street.
