Michael Davis Jr’s ‘Back to Eden’ is a focused and sincere short documentary centered entirely on Evangelist and detoxification specialist Caprice Davis. There is no narration, no outside commentary. Just Davis, speaking directly to the camera, sharing her story with clarity and purpose.
The film follows her transition from traditional Southern comfort food to a raw, plant-based diet. She explains the shift not as a health trend, but as a spiritual journey. Her reasoning is rooted in scripture and personal conviction. References to the Daniel Fast, Genesis 1:29, and concerns about food safety are presented as part of her lived experience rather than arguments for a specific diet.
Davis speaks calmly and with an appealing confidence. She is not trying to convert or preach to anyone. She is simply sharing what worked for her, and why. Her presence on screen is steady and sincere, which gives the film its strength and appeal.
The film includes simple but effective visual details – shots of fresh produce and raw meals – that support her story without distracting from it. The editing is smooth, the pacing steady, and the tone respectful. Davis is always the focus, and the film gives her space to speak without interruption or embellishment.
‘Back to Eden’ runs just 7 minutes but leaves a strong impression. It is not about promoting a specific diet. It is about a woman making a choice to live in alignment with her beliefs, and sharing that journey with clarity and purpose.
