How much unspoiled nature should we preserve and what do we sacrifice for clean,
renewable energy? Dreamland gradually turns into a disturbing picture of
corporate power taking over small communities.

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 Iceland, to build the biggest dam in Europe to provide
Alcoa 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 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. It’s the
dark side of green energy.
