Eden Is West (French: "Eden à l'ouest" ) is a 2009 film by Greek-French director Costa-Gavras about an illegal immigrant called Elias who tries to get to Paris.
 The original title in Greek is “Paradissos sti Dysi” (“Paradise in West”) and since it is a Greek-French production, the also original French title is “Eden à l'ouest'.
 The nationality of the central hero is not disclosed because Gavras wants to make a point about the odysseys of the illegal immigrants of any nationality, since he himself was an immigrant 50 years ago in France, before he became a well known director.
 His hero seems to tolerate the sea, the cold of snowy mountains and the hunger, the rapists and robbers he meets, the cops that are after him all the time, the racists who push him aside, the fellow immigrants who steal his clothes and in the best case the women who see him as a lover they could also take advantage of.
 His only comfort is his dream of Paris and, in the complexity of human condition, the good within the evil and vice versa.

 "The Seeker" is the first film to be produced by 20th Century Fox and Walden Media as part of their Fox-Walden partnership.
 On his 14th birthday Will Stanton (Ludwig) finds out that he is the last of a group of warriors – "The Light" – who have spent their lives fighting against evil – "The Dark".
 Will travels through time to track down the signs that will enable him to confront the evil forces.
 The Dark is personified by The Rider (Eccleston).
 This film adaptation drew strong negative reaction from fans of the book series for its disregard of the source material.
