Some Kind of Heaven

United States | 2020 | Lance Oppenheim

This new documentary takes us behind the gates of The Villages, America’s largest retirement community, a massive, Disneyesque, palm tree-lined fantasyland and utopia in Central Florida. Despite the ideal setting, trappings, and amenities, and an overall air of positivity, some of the 130,000 residents of this surreal paradise still search for love and meaning. Produced by Darren Aronofsky. Has a 100% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes. “Those nostalgic for the fond portraits of eccentric Americana in Errol Morris’ early work—and pretty much everyone else—will be delighted.” –Variety. Cleveland premiere. 81 min.
