Artificial Paradises (Portuguese: Paraísos Artificiais) is a 2012 Brazilian drama film directed by Marcos Prado and starring Nathalia Dill, Luca Bianchi and Lívia de Bueno.
Erika (Nathalia Dill) is a successful DJ and friend of Lara (Livia de Bueno).
During a festival where Erika was working, they met Nando (Luca Bianchi) and, together, they live an intense moment.
"I read the book and thought the title fit perfectly in the film, although addressing another era, the mid-19th century, and the consumption of other drugs, wine, opium and hashish," admits Prado.
[3] Filming took place between 18 October and 25 November in Praia do Paiva, in Recife, and also in Rio de Janeiro, in the traditional Arpoador beach.
