Navigations to the "New World" pushed the boundaries of Western knowledge. The maps of the time mixed descriptions of geographical reality with imaginary mythologising. Vision of Paradise follows the voyage of the Brazilian Navy in search of a legendary island, allegedly found in 1483, to the west of Ireland. On the fine line between the real, the simulated and the imagined, the film reflects on the possibilities of virtual reality as a tool for giving "new worlds to the world".
