DREAMLAND
How much unspoiled nature should we preserve and what do we sacrifice for clean, renewable energy?

The stunningly filmed Dreamland gradually turns a land of abundance into a disturbing picture of corporate power taking over small communitiesˇ­ and the country of Iceland itself.

Dreamland is a film about a nation standing at cross-roads.

Leading up to the country's greatest economic crisis, the government started the largest mega project in the history of Icelandˇ­ to build the biggest dam in Europe to provide mega-corp Alcoa access to cheap electricity for an aluminum smelter in the rugged east fjords of Iceland. Today Iceland is left holding a huge dept and an uncertain future.

In Dreamland, a nation with an abundance of choices gradually becomes caught up in a plan to turn its wilderness and beautiful nature into a massive system of hydro-electric and geothermal power plants with dams and reservoirs. Clean energy brings in polluting industry and international corporations.

Dreamland is the story of the dark side of green energy.
