“Camping in Paradise” synopsis: A philosopher and his girlfriend involuntarily spends a night at a nudist campsite, which is farbeyond their comfort zone. At the campsite they meet a friendly couple, and this revealsunderlying conflicts and creates tension in their relationship.

About the director, Erik Tveiten:

Eirik worked as an actor before he made the debut as a stage writer with «The cactus» in 1997. In2010 he wrote and directed the acclaimed short film «Friendly people». Since then, he has writtenand directed 14 short films. His work includes different genres and stretches from high realism tostylized comedy. His latest film, «Night ride» won best Short Film at the Tribeca Film Festival 2022and has been well received at festivals worldwide. “Night Ride” has a total of 11 wins thus farincluding an Oscar nomination. Eirik is currently in development with a feature film project. «Camping in paradise» explores a sincere theme concerning the dynamicsof shame and fear in intimate relationships. I adore stories that combine humor with seriouspsychological and philosophical questions. Nudity appears as a meaningful metaphor for how -and in what ways – we express ourselves, communicate, and wish to be seen and treated in arelationship. This film does not shy away from showing nudity, as I am concerned that the nakedbody is increasingly becoming taboo – or an object of sexualization in media and society.Hopefully this is a story that will stir up some controversy and be meaningful as well as enjoyedand interpreted in various ways.About
