What Is Paradigm About?
The premise of Paradigm without spoilers.
William Hoyland plays a nameless figure who directly addresses the camera in an invented language, guiding the audience through his own metamorphosis. Over the course of the film he ages dramatically, shifting from a loquacious, youthful presence to a muted, almost speech‑less elder, reflecting the erosion of language and identity.
