The Edge of Paradise

In 1969, Howard Taylor, brother of actress Elizabeth, bails out a rag-tag band of young Mainlanders jailed for vagrancy and invites them to live on his oceanfront land. Soon, waves of hippies, surfers, and troubled Vietnam vets find their way to this clothing optional, pot-friendly, tree house village at the end of the road on Kauai's North Shore -- the ultimate hippie fantasy, order without rules, perched in a pristine forest alongside a tropical Hawaiian beach paradise; until the locals decide it's time for them to go.

This intimate documentary explores what life was like on the Taylor camp. The film has been recut with insightful interviews with the residents, archival portraits, and has been newly remastered in beautiful HD.
