Dec 21: Dreamland (2009) dir. Andri Snær Magnason and Thorfinnur Gudnason

I've been reading quite a few books about Iceland.

This movie was released in 2009, directed by Andri Snær Magnason and Thorfinnur Gudnason, it is a documentary that searches about the importance of keeping the Icelandic nature protected. 

And generally, talks about the bad things that happened when the Kárahnjúkar dam was built and how people and nature have been influenced by the aluminium giants.

It's based on a book by Andri Snær Magnason, Dreamland - a Self Help Manual for a Frightened Nation, of which I have a copy. The protection of Iceland is really important, but very little of the country has escaped the impact of humans over the years since the country was occupied.
