DESCRIPTION: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.\n\nDreamland — The remarkable story of how 
 Iceland, a volcanic island nation slightly smaller than Kentucky with a 
 population of just 320,000 people (roughly the same as St. Louis), became a 
 lab rat in the hyper-financialized global economy. A modern, 
 technologically advanced, and highly educated European country blessed with 
 stunning natural beauty and abundant resources (especially hydro-electric 
 and geo-thermal energy, which offer it independence from fossil fuels), 
 Iceland represented the model of a sustainable future — until its 
 government decided to take advantage of all that cheap energy by letting 
 U.S. aluminum giant Alcoa build an enormous smelting plant there.\n \n 
 \nDirected by þorfinnur Guđnason and Andri Snær Magnason. In Icelandic 
 with English subtitles. Screening Friday, May 20, at 7:00pm. Buy Tickets.
