A Map of Paradise
1 May 2008
Produced by Katie Burningham and Alan Hall
Between The Ears Paradise may no longer feature on maps of the world but its imprint is still powerfully evident in the hearts and minds of humanity.
We examine the draw that notions of paradise have on different individuals and attempt to map paradise, spiritually, psychologically and politically, in the hope of understanding the significance it holds.
"Look closer, said the programme ... knitting past to present, visions to realities, opening wide the mind's eye once more to the elusive horizon of human perfectibility." Gillian Reynolds, Daily Telegraph 3.6.08
