KALAUPAPA HEAVEN

(2007)

20 minutes by plane from modern Honolulu, lies a tiny settlement forgotten by time. Kalaupapa, a peninsula on the Hawaiian island of Molokai, with its swaying palms, unspoiled beaches and stunning mountains, is a paradise on earth – but with a dark and dramatic history. Kalaupapa is a leprosy colony.

PRODUCER: Mark Patterson
