Someone did not like my first review.
We find out that Anna Maria has a niece and that she is a daughter of the women sex vacationing in Kenya. So trilogy starts to make sense.

Girls in their teens. The fat once. Fighting with pillows and talking about sex. But then the hairy Guy comes to train them and teach them how to try to loose fat. 😉 I think that sending girls to the village is an idiotic thing, but girls who escaped, and went to a night club, dancing girls really gives us HOPE! I find this film weaker link of the other two. Especially the second one. Faith. Glaube. So powerful, that this one looks weaker. But it should not be underestimated. It should be watched together with other two. Very powerful trilogy!

Seidl closes it on a more positive note
“Paradies: Hoffnung” or “Hope” is the 3rd and final installments to Ulrich Seidl’s “Paradise” trilogy. After fairly heavy material in “Love” and “Faith”, this one is a bit lighter. However, it still has its serious moments. It is the shortest from the 3 movies as it only runs for roughly 90 minutes and also the one that got the least awards attention. Still, it is a pretty good film in my opinion. The protagonist here is the obese daughter/niece from the protagonists of the other 2 films. Hofstätter has a cameo in here as well at the beginning. The girl’s name is Melanie and she is sent to summer camp to lose weight. Basically, for the entire film we watch her routine at the camp. Seidl chooses a mix of comedy and drama again. The tough sports coach is fun to watch with his determination and lets be honest: fat children making sports is a funny sight, no offense. When one after the other makes forward rolls from the left of the screen to the right, there is something hilarious to it. Another funny scene would be when the gang tries to steal candy at night and they get caught by the PE teacher again.

However, this is by no means a comedy. There are many serious moments in here. The P.E. coach is for the humor, the doctor is for the drama as he is at least as attracted to the main character as she is to him. This results in many complicated situations and, ultimately, in heartbreak. But the girl is really only looking for somebody to understand her, enjoy spending time with her, which was probably something her mother neglected, even if she came across as a caring mother from the first film in my opinion. Anyway, the girls’ calls say a lot in this film. She does not want to ruin her mother’s holiday in Kenya (now that was a holiday!), so she says it is all good at the camp, but she tells the truth to her father because she knows he won’t care anyway. In the end, however, she is also honest towards her mother. Her mother is her ultimate attachment figure again after the doctor “broke up” with her and her best friend left her alone at the club when she was in really bad condition.

I have never been at such a camp because I never had weight problems and looking at this one here, this may have been a good thing. But even with all the drama going on, I felt that, overall, this was a lighter watch than the other 2 films, especially “Faith”. I definitely recommend this trilogy, very well done from Seidl and everybody who worked on this massive project, especially the 3 lead actresses. Now let me clap my (non-existing) fat because I’m happy I got to watch these. Thumbs up and I recommend “Hope” just like I recommend the previous 2.
