冰島有傲人的自然美景，漁獲量稱霸全球；卻因為全球經濟的帶動，成為重工業城市。

從前的冰島，人們在豐富的自然中與環境和平共處。工業時代來臨，第一座水壩以及煉鋁廠設立於冰島東部最美麗的河流上，而煉鋁廠也對當地環境造成嚴重污染；同時，社會型態大幅變動，漁夫換上西裝，全球化影響了冰島人的生活。如今，冰島來到了抉擇的十字路口……

Dreamland is a film about exploitation of natural resources and as Icelanders have learned clean energy does not come without consequence. Iceland is a country blessed with an abundance of clean, renewable, hydro-electric and geothermal energy. Clean energy brings in polluting industry and international corporations.

Dreamland tells the story of a nation with abundance of choices gradually becoming 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, built to power the increasing heavy industry that will soon make Iceland the largest aluminum smelter in the world.

This is also a story of a small nation’s continuing struggle for its independence, and today from multinational companies roaming the world.
