“Paradise” has themes of climate change, privilege and the pecking order of who in society gets saved during an emergency.

Over the next 30 years, 143 million people are likely to be uprooted by rising seas, drought, searing temperatures and other climate catastrophes, according to the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report published this year.Still, the world has yet to officially recognize climate migrants or come up with formalized ways to assess their needs and help them.
