Fresh look at Paradise

IF you missed the first screening of what has been called the “greatest story of adventure and innovation”, then never fear, Last Paradise is back in Noosa by popular demand.
Director Clive Neeson said Last Paradise had toured Australia with packed audiences at every screening, but Noosa had been the highlight of the tour.
“Noosa had an energetic audience embracing the main message of the film, which has special local significance,” he said.
“The film has found a special place here and it’s the perfect way to wind up the premiere tour.”
Last Paradise brings together 45 years of original footage that takes the audience on a global safari with Australian and New Zealand adventure pioneers to experience just how the world was a generation ago.
The film includes footage of Noosa during the ’60s when the first surfers, like George Greenough and Bob McTavish, hiked through the bush to surf the isolated pristine waves alone.
A focus on possible future world issues, and issues within communities such as Noosa, are also explored as the film takes you on a journey between the lines of fun and adventure.
The special screening at The J will feature an introduction from local Mike Davis, followed by a question and answer session with film director Clive Neeson, who will explain the making and meaning behind the film.
“It will be an inspiring night out for all the family,” Mr Neeson said.
The film will be shown on 10 July and 11 July, from 7pm, at The J, Noosa Junction.
Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for children and concessions. You can book your ticket at www.lastparadisefilm.com.
