Review of Ruby in Paradise (1993) by Shayfilms — 08 Oct 2021
Director Victor Nunez beautifully captures a story of a young woman that is realistic, honest, and worthy of praise. After moving away from home where everything was “do this and do that”, Ruby finds herself alone in a place that could have been paradise.
Except, she is met with the reality of supporting herself, navigating relationships, and finding work during the slow season. Ruby’s struggles reflect that leaving your home can be difficult and a true test of your character, strength, and resilience— which Ruby proves each time she bounces back from a situation.
Her optimism was seen through her determination, making it easy to appreciate her as a protagonist. What a fantastic way to tell a story.
