Beyond Paradise is a Film by David L. Cunningham based extremely loosely on his experiences in Hawaii as a teenager. It was his first feature film, and his previous work was sponsored infomercial style documentaries. The film is a primarily SliceOfLife look at a teen's experiences with his friends, but it also deals heavily with the racial tensions in Hawaii. The movie was suggested by the Hawaiian tourism board at one time, but is almost unheard of outside of Hawaii, due in no small part to its low budget and stiff acting.
